Billy Thorpe lives on as an Australian rock legend, but in 1963 he was a 17-year-old singer fresh out of Brisbane, who arrived in Sydney's Kings Cross ready to crack the big time. Through his eyes we see the Cross at a unique moment in history, and Australia on the threshold of an astonishing new wave of youth culture.For Billy, it's a tantalising and dangerous new world and he soon finds his life turned upside-down by an erotic menage a trois and a murder. And as if that's not enough, he joins a group called the Aztecs and within 12 months they have a national No 1 hit.Sex and Thugs and Rock'n'Roll is a rollercoaster ride through this amazing year of Billy's life. Take the trip. Most People I Know (think that I'm crazy), published in 1998, is the sequel to Sex and Thugs and Rock'n'Roll, and is every bit as wild and hilarious as its predecessor.The two books are published in one commemorative edition to celebrate the life of Billy Thorpe, who passed away on February 28, 2007.
