@gordijn1234 I'd thank Billy for a lot more than just one of his followers.

The Late Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs; We were so blessed in Australia with some top Rock n Roll outfits in the 70's, its such a shame the Americans never cottoned on to some of the great Music we rocked our Arses off to, yeah we had al the Yankee and Brit stuff, but there was something much earthier about the Aussie beat

@crocodilepeter You are so right Pete!

I remember buying this single on RAK back in 72, and it jumped so i took it back and although the replacement was fine i still thought i it jumped . Like so much great music at the time it never got the recognition it deserved,this is one awesome live performance,and serves as a reminder just how good we had it back then.
