This week we go a little bit paisley, with a trip back to the 1960s and 70s music scene through the memories of musician Billy Thorpe, who died suddenly in February 2007.
Billy Thorpe's performing career started in the 1950s. As an 11-year-old he hosted the Channel 9er's in Brisbane, performed at the Brisbane 'Ecka' with Reg Lindsay and Slim Dusty and, by the age of 16, he was singing regularly with The Planets at Birdland.
