Billy Thorpe & Warren Morgan

Thump'n Pig & Puff'n Billy

Atlantic, Australia 1973

 Here's an original Australian pressing of the Thump'n Pig & Puff'n Billy LP by Billy Thorpe & Warren Morgan, issued in 1973


By 1972 The Aztecs piano player Warren ‘Pig’ Morgan had performed a key role in the careers of two of Australia’s most legendary blues rock bands Chain and Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs. He’d been a founder member of Chain in 1968, and had been instrumental in helping Thorpie establish his reputation as one of the wildest and heaviest blues rockers of the day. 

Initially a solo project this LP soon became a collaborative effort after Warren asked Billy Thorpe to join in. Christening themselves “Thump’n Pig & Puff’n Billy” they then enlisted the talents of another Aztec member (Gil Matthews) and 2 members of Chain (Phil Manning and Barry Sullivan) to record the LP they called “Downunda”. The single Captain Straightman became a much loved hit.
