Shorrock’s Little River Band made history in the ’70s and ’80s, becoming one of the world’s most popular bands.

But he still owes a “nod” to Geelong after a trip to Little River inspired the band’s name in 1975.

“We were on our way to a gig in Geelong and I thought that sounds like the name of a band,” he said.

“Had we gone a few miles the other way we could have been named ‘wrong way go back’.”
