@SuperMikecarp.What absolute rubbish.Their first single was"Blue Day",written by Tony Barber.The original version of Lindy Lu was by Ray Sharpe in 1959.
This is the 2nd lot of Aztecs-Teddy Toi(bass) and Johnny Dick(drums) from Max Merritt and The Meteors,along withColin Risby(lead) and Mike Downes(rhythm) from Ray Hoff and The OffBeats.
There were many incarnations of Thorpie and the Aztecs over the years since he came on the scene in 1963. Plenty of examples on YouTube. Check them out.
Wow...I never knew Billy Thorpe had tunes like this.....I only know of him through his tune "Children of the Sun" from 1979. I had to look the name up on Wikipedia to see if it is the same Billy and it is! Just checked and all of the is's are was's - he died in 2007 - R.I.P. B.T. Cool upload Carl, Thanks
@Cavemaaaan He had many hits in the mis 60's, in fact his version of Poision Ivy was No.1 when the Beatles toured here in 1964. I hope you have checked out his early 70's stuff "Mamma" live on GTK is a standout, as well as "Heartbreak Hotel" etc etc.

I think this was their first single. Tony Barber wrote it.
