Fantastic; been listening to Russell Morris since I was 13 in 1969 and still enjoy his music. I heard the song "The Real Thing" which was playing on a transistor radio while travelling home from Perth Western Australia, on a bus after selling newspapers on a street corner after school. Russell Morris recently sang this song for a Perth fundraising event (Telethon) and the performance was faultless and priceless. What a wonderful talent, performer and generous man. He is gold as his music brings so much joy and pleasure. West Australians dug deep for telethon raising a lot of $$$$ for children's hospital, medical research and donated while watching quality performances performed by quality talent such a Russell Morris so we thank him very much.

Agreed. After belting out tunes for so long how can this man's voice be better than it was in the 60's ..and it was the best voice in the industry then, in my opinion.. It's mind boggling. His voice is so rich & colourful now. Usually those top notes disappear with age & wear, but not with this man.. Amazing!

Kevin Murphy on drums, and I imagine it is Peter Robinson on guitar who has been with Russell Morris many years no. This as back in the Capers Restaurant days when Peter Laffy was one of the three amigos that produced these videos. Poor old Peter Laffy ended up passing away after going to live in Hawaii to get treatment for his illness that killed him. I'm not sure who Tecoma Coboy was, but he was supposed to be one of those three amigos I guess. He used to post these videos on youtube many years ago.
