    The enthusiasm from the reporter says it all. Glen summed her up perfectly. I remember her songs being played in discos in the 80s
    RIP you rock legend.

    Knew Renee back in the early days when she was with Sun. The band was a regular at the Sydney Arts Factory just off Oxford Street. We ended up back her place one night trying to make hash cookies. After she left Sun I saw her at a bar near Town Hall where she was performing. It was a few years after the Arts Factory closed and she asked if I still saw any of the old crowd. By then Renee's star was ascending and while I watched her career with interest, I never saw her again on stage or socially. Sad to hear that she passed away.
