I saw a news story this month about a white platypus being spotted in a river in northern New South Wales, which got me to thinking how The Little River Band used the platypus on some of their record covers.

So, I did a search on the net for LRB covers and found a record of theirs called 'The Definitive Collection', which was a best of album with a lot of songs of theirs I really liked.
I was thinking about buying the CD over the net for $20, but then let it slip from my mind.
Then the next day at the Op Shop I work at part time, a guy bought in a shoe box of his old CDs as a donation and as I was sorting through them, there it was, 'The Definitive Collection'.
So, I bought it for $1.
Of course, this white platypus thing would have to happen in 2023, the Year of the Water Rabbit, wouldn't it?-)

"As we passed the Little River exit sign, [Shorrock] said "Little River, that'd be a good song title." Within a split second he said, "Hey, what about Little River Band?" We all agreed it was the perfect name for us."
