Angry Anderson (Rose Tattoo) and Phil Rudd (AC/DC) were both in Buster Brown - Rudd left to join AC/DC Buster Brown morphed into Rose Tattoo got to see some pretty outrageous lineups in the mid 80's starting with John Meyer - but i do love Pete Wells - also Mark Evans the original AC/DC bass player is now with Rose Tattoo also also Rose Tattoo spent a fair bit of time in the US with the early GNR if you hunt you will find Slash turning up at Tatt's gigs

Ian Rilen their Bassist and Songwriter 1947 - 2006 Ian was also a pioneering member of legendary Band 'X' RIP Mick Cocks, Dallas Digger Royale, Pete Wells & Lobby Lloyde. That's a lot of members for one Band to lose. Lobby was a legend in his own right with the Coloured Balls and Wild Cherries and Billy Thorpe and The Aztecs. Lobby's list of Production credits is one of the most impressive lists in Australian history. Sunnyboys, Machinations, Sardine V, Flaming Hands, Models, Painters and Dockers, Buster Brown, just to name several.
