This was the year before my first year up the street with the Crean String band. This piece from Fralinger, along with GK's "go for baroque" will always be IMHO the best two performances I've seen in my 38 years.
Today's TV coverage is a travesty! It's amazing to me that in 2010 they can't figure out how channels 3 and 10 were able to get perfect sound in the 80's
I think that Fralinger 1984 was the best ever, with 99 points (look at that era & you'll understand why), but this remains a very close second.How 'bout that- 2 of the best of all time are Fralinjger in the 1980's- not even looking at their masterpieces in the 1970's, let alone their run of 7 in a row in the 2000's!
this theme would win hands down every year never stops coming at you WOW! wut a blast from the past but clearly the 88 string judges were smoking crack

One major reason- the costumes were A LOT better in 1984- & who can knock "Woodchopper's Ball"?
