What does a man in New York City hospital, with no idea how he got there, have in common with two homicide detectives, murder, an American hit record, rock festivals, the Toorak library, six air hostesses, a Las Vegas wedding, James Bond's Aston Martin and Gracelands? The answer: Billy Thorpe.
As Billy lies in a hospital bed, trying vainly to work out how even he managed to get himself into this mess, he wanders through the corridors of his life: the music, mayhem and mind-altering substances; the Sunbury Aztecs, the girls, the characters, the '70s . . .
Following on from his sensational bestseller, 'Sex And Thugs And Rock 'n' Roll', this is Billy's wild and hilarious journey through the late '60s and early '70s. From gun-toting hoons in Canberra to a houseful of rockers in Melbourne, from good ole boys in Macon, Georgia, to the Egg Lady in Las Vegas, from disco dancing in New York City to peace-loving hippies in Wallacia, Billy's seen it all - and then some.
