RIP Billy Thorpe

Australia lost one of it's greatest rock legends today to a heart attack at the age of 60.

Billy Thorpe was one of the loudest and best rockers this country has seen and had star power equal to the Beatles in the 60's and 70's when he was really huge. He never stopped performing either, the last gig he did was at a pub about and hour and a half from here just 3 days ago.

If your into Aussie music, I'm talking the good old Aussie rock, then check out these songs by Thorpy!
