moved to Berlin in January 1987, and returned to Australian early in the next year. Early in 1991 Cohen began a relationship with Astrid Munday, a vocalist for country music groups Killer Sheep and then Desert Boot. After living together in Sydney they moved in with Cohen's parents at their rural property at Kongwak, Victoria in November 1991. At different times he attempted to curb his alcohol and drug dependencies. The couple returned to Melbourne in February 1992.

But, I loved him and fully respect what he achieved in his career. He was technically brilliant, but also a caring, big-hearted man." Upon the inclusion of Cohen's work in the Australian Music Vault, his mother Margaret stated, "it wasn't until his untimely death, that I was made aware of the esteem
