    Same. Was a little disappointed with their Elvis Costello cover, but the other 2 songs were pretty neat. Have been giving their Rhythm and Soul album a few spins over the past week. :50:

    Cold Chisel do have some pretty cool tracks as well didn't get around to or were not eligible if they were released in the 70s, worth checking out as well. Choir Girl, Cheap Wine & Khe Sanh to name a few...

    Crowded House mid 80s onwards would have been tremendous. You only have yourself to blame Taz.

    Thanks for the song submissions so far, just waiting on one artist to confirm their choice of two 80's songs and we will be off :50:

    Usual script please, 5 points to distribute, do so as you please, many thanks you lovely folk. Semi-finalists, I'm going to trust you to vote in the spirit of the game and will ask you for your votes on the other semi too. Remember this is all a bit of fun. ​
