  • @RickenbackerRules I think there was at least one bass player if not more between McArdle and Nelson.

  • Great bass player. Shame it didn't work out with George.

  • I still remeber the day George announced he was quitting LRB on the eve of their successful trip to America. I was in the ABC studios in Ripponlea Melb.at a taping of COUNTDOWN and Molly Meldrum interviewd Graeham Gobleabout it. Not sure, but here were suggestions he had become a born-again Christian and wanted to do other things. A pitty, because he was replaced by a basic bass played in Wayne Nelson, who with Steve Housden, still holds on to the name "Little River Band" with a tight fist! :-(

  • McArdle is vastly underrated.

  • Where can I find the rest of that interview?  George was a big influence on my own playing and one of the big reasons I love LRB.

  • I guess I spent so much time enjoying the music of LRB that I never took the time to see the turmoil that obviously existed within the band. I thought the original group (certainly minus Farnham) was by far the best. I know all things must end, but what a shame to see what's become of them years later. To Glenn and the original founding members. . .all my best. . .you guys rocked. . .and your work is what has endured, for me.

  • George, can you post a live version of you playing "Happy Anniversary"? It was the first slap & pop bass line I ever learned. Great work!

  • George McArdle is still one funky caucasian bass player.
