Reviews:

''Greatest Hits'' was a 1982 compilation of hits by the Australian band Little River Band. The album was digitally remastered and repackaged with additional tracks in an expanded edition in 2000.

The first release of the 2000 edition used three alternate tracks to those released commercially:

"Take It Easy on Me"<br/>

When the band recorded the album ''Time Exposure'' in Montserrat with George Martin two versions of this song were recorded, with Glenn Shorrock and Wayne Nelson respectively on lead vocal. "The Night Owls", with Nelson on lead vocal, had already been selected as the first single from the album. When Martin selected the Nelson version of "Take It Easy on Me" for the album and second single, Shorrock complained and his version of the song was used instead.

It is the Nelson version of "Take It Easy on Me" that appeared on the first 2000 release of ''Greatest Hits''.

"Man on Your Mind"<br/>

The alternate version features a horn section in the backing music.

"The Night Owls"<br/>

The alternate version features a heavier guitar sound.

Some members of the band objected to these alternate tracks. The remaining CDs were pulled from the market and reissued with the original album tracks. The "unauthorised" version is keenly sought by collectors. - Wikipedia
