Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs Live At Melbourne Town Hall 1971 Australian LP. Fantastic example of rare early 70's Australian heavy progressive rock. On Sunday June 13 1971, the Aztecs, Chain, Daddy Cool, Wild Cherries, La De Da's, Healing Force and Lotus were the line-up for a concert at the Melbourne Town Hall. Taking advantage of such a big occasion, the Aztecs decided to record their set for a live LP and TV. The resultant LP Aztecs Live (also know as Live At Melbourne Town Hall) captures the band on the brink of becoming the biggest band in Australia, and a rare document of the Thorpe, Matthews, Morgan and Wheeler line-up. This was an Australian release although the vinyl was pressed in New Zealand (as were all Havoc releases) due to the reduced costs.
