Posted on: Fri 29 Mar 2019

On this day, Breakfast celebrates the birthday of Billy Thorpe.

Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs was a legendary Australian band that became prominent with the hit ‘Poison Ivy’, which kept the Beatles from the number one spot on the Sydney charts in 1964.

Breakfast producer David Bucio joins Tom Mann and Zoe Kounadis to speak about the band’s highlights which also include the song ‘Most People I Know (Think That I’m Crazy)’, one of the classics in Australian rock, and their presentation at the 1972 Sunbury Music Festival.
