Rose Tattoo-Billy Thorpe - Going Down live.mpg

[@rowdymacd]

I’ve watched this a thousand times for sure. Probably one of the best rock performances there’s ever been. In my opinion. Pure pure rock

[@Nantosuelta]

They are such a criminally underrated band. They should have been as big as AC/DC

[@rodwilliams4170]

The stuff of Aussie rock legend. Billy Thorpe at his absolute peak. A truly underrated guitar maestro!!

[@juanorozco2532]

Same. Here..........

[@Martin-iv6lq]

Absolutely one of the best rock and roll performances ever! I say DAMN!!

[@lancearthur-sx6oy]

Billy Thorpe. A brilliant guitarist. Way under rated. Iconic rocking performance.

[@aniellopetito8009]

When Billy is rockin the earth spins around the sun a bit faster. His guitar is plugged into lightning. The only problem is how do you listen to this sober or without throwing chairs into the air. RIP brother Billy.

[@JKNorthrup1111music]

I had the amazing honor of playing lead guitar for Billy for the 1982-83 tour of USA and Australia. To this day, I am blown away by his presence!! Amazing singer, guitarist and songwriter. Peace, love and respect Billy. RIP my friend..

[@paulcleary9694]

Very kind words,and true.In the 70,s Bill was the king of Rock in Aust.Can you shed some light on why he was not bigger in the US.Many Aussies were surprised by this.

Thank fuck for youtube. We will never see the likes of this insane awesome craziness ever again.

[@TheMichaelseymour]

Sad to think all three guitar players on this are now gone -but not forgotten.

[@rodwilliams4170]

None other than the guitar maestro himself Mr Billy Thorpe!! A legend who is sadly missed.

[@jasmineb7106]

Geezus! Australia has produced some bloody amazing musos!! Awesome performance!! 🤘👍👍🤘

[@gregclark3268]

Billy once said our musos are just as good as anyone from the US or UK and he was dead right.

[@2002bonzo]

I'd like to thank my parents for having me in an era where this stuff was around. ACDC, Angels,RoseTattoo... God bless em..

[@waynemoore7393]

A legend, we saw Billy at the Waltzing Matilda pub in Melbourne years ago. He came on at midnight and blew everyone away. Spoke to us after the show, what a beautiful human being,listened to our bullshit and still was excited that we enjoyed his show. An extraordinary, brilliant type of bloke..RIP BILLY..

[@businessworkshopevents-liv5513]

Thorpie now breakin' hearts and strings, champion.

[@in1way]

What a CLASSIC moment in Oz Rock History... Angry totally blown away with Thorpies presence..... Rest In Rock Billy!!!

[@maxnmat]

Thorpie and Angry at their best, this is one for the rock n roll history books, I've lost count how many times I've watched this video, I met Angry in 2004, what a down to earth bloke he was

[@Mrmikey0909]

Just about my favourite all time video.

[@suecharleston7768]

Gary Colligan.Good stuff 'Angry'Hes a good Bloke,i met him & the band in 83,drinking at The Underground.

[@markwilliams7712]

Look what we used to make in Australia.

[@Skoora]

Love this. Any American old timer jam would play the slow version filled with attempts of Eric Claptonism but this just puts a flamethrower to it and says fuck that!

[@greatape7258]

I met Pete back in 96.not just a rock legend, but a legend of a person.

[@rowan282003]

now this is what Paul McCartney and the Foo Fighters were trying to achieve in there so called jam "cut me some slack", this is heaven and they are still looking up at the gods of Aussie rock.

[@cherylatthowe8779]

I can watch this over and over and over..... R.I.P. Billy Thorpe, Pete Wells, Mick Cocks blasting it out in 'Wherever they are'

[@stevemann3080]

I'M ON MY FOURTH WATCH TODAY !!! :-)

[@dartanion0075]

It's Awesome.

[@johnyates4204]

So glad I was born in the 60's and able to witness these great live bands of the 70's / 80's, you can tell that Angry, Billy and co. just love rock'n'roll. Cheers me up everytime I listen to this

Billy (R.I.P.) one super amazing Aussie Musician and seen him play live many times, as well as Rose Tattoo, back at the Prospect. Friend's brother played in band. Loved Kylie's choice of Suddenly in Neighbours. Play Thorpie's last release 2 disc CD a lot. Cool combo- Billy and Angry.
