With respect to all the former original LRB members, this line up of voices is its greatest. I was at this concert in 1983, and LRB blew the roof off with these incredible voices. John Farnham is the greatest singer on the planet. There is only one LRB , born and breed in Australia. Not the tribute band living of LRBs legacy there in the USA. Thank you LRB for your incredible voices and music back in Melbourne 1983. Cheers Jeff
