Here's to each of their contributions and to Garth, a special nod; I always felt his laconic, shy spirit was what was needed and the others fell back on when massive egos and troubled personalities tried to overwhelm the process. (I don't know that for sure, I just like to think it)
I never got to see Robbie or the Band but have always been a fan. I didn't care for Robbie, seemed egotistical and loved to take credit for their success and fame.

I also liked Garth, Got to meet him and see him play with The Call back in the early 80's.
