Happy unofficial start of summer to the fine folks in the northern hemisphere, aka the right-side-up part of the world, no offense to you Upsidedowners down south.

In the meantime, please make yourself a mai tai and listen up to Top Ten Yacht Rock Bands/Artists Part 1.

Wayne Nelson is the bassist and vocalist of Little River Band, and has been for the past 4 decades… LRB gave us many great ‘80s hits including “Reminiscing,” “Lonesome Loser,” “Lady,” “Cool Change” and “The Night Owls”  It’s gone through numerous changes since then, but carries on. 

I talk with Wayne about...

• His beginnings in music in Chicago.
• Moving to L.A., and  connecting with star performer and producer Jim Messina.
• How he joined Little River Band.
• His early experiences with the group, including working with legendary Beatles producer George Martin.
• The controversy and legal battles behind use of the Little River Band name.
• How the band began playing with orchestras, leading to its terrific new orchestrated Greatest Hits LP – Black Tie. 

Double K Country's Noel Connet interviews Wayne Nelson from the LITTLE RIVER BAND as they talk about their new album.
