Little River Band Founder Vs Jimmy Fallon
. (Radio.com) Generally speaking, soft-rock is one of the less controversial genres of music from the past few decades. And few soft-rock groups rocked more softly than Australia's Little River Band. So Jimmy Fallon may have been surprised to hear from LRB's founder, singer/songwriter Glenn Shorrock. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Sharrock said "If you do decide to put [the band] on the show just pass on my message to go f- yourselves." Strong words, but what is Mr. Sharrock so angry about? Like many other legacy acts, his former group has had a lot of turnover in the ranks over the decades. In fact, the current version of the Little River Band features no original members, and that's been the case for 18 years, when the original drummer Derek Pellicci left the band. Shorrock, a founding member of the Little River Band, is outraged by the current band "grinding our good name into dust," according to the Herald. While he says that the current version of the band are within their legal rights to tour and perform under the name Little River Band, he's asked his publishing company to deny NBC clearance to air any performances of his songs.
