Little River Band are alright, though not really my bag. I like "Help Is On Its Way", "Lonesome Loser" and "Love Is A Bridge" but that's about it.

Re: Bands from Australia

Yeh, Iva Davies (Icehouse / Flowers) couldn't make his mind up who he wanted to be ... Ferry / Bowie / Kerr. His previous band Flowers started out as a cover band doing Roxy, Bowie etc ... so hardly surprising there.

Re: Bands from Australia

Just listening to Eighties Internet radio, and Icehouse have come on (Sidewalk)
Did they specialize in copying other 80's bands? as I would have sworn I was listening to Simple Minds
Hey little Girl was a Roxy/Japan soundalike
