The Aztecs became the backing band for top '60's artist Billy Thorpe

Billy's first big hit was a cover of Poison Ivy

You reminded me of a cd i've got called 'Of Hopes & Dreams & Tombstones' Beat 'N' R & B From Down Under. It features lots of 60's beat bands from Australia, 1 of the bands on there is Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs doing a song called 'Blue Day'.
This is a picture of the cd cover...
