[ERA : 70s / Blue Rock, Boogie ]
Lock Up Your Mothers... Live Vol. 2 presents 12 previously unreleased, powerhouse rock'n' roll songs from the last great Aztecs tour (1994). The original 3CD box set Lock Up Your Mothers had been a huge success, a Top 10 seller in August 1994, and it helped launch a Thorpie revival to rival the peak of his popularity during the 1970s. Riding on a wave of nostalgia, Thorpie took the Aztecs on the road for the successful Lock Up Your Mothers national tour over the 1994/95 summer. Following on from the successful 2017 Aztecs Double CD Lock Up Your Mothers... Live, and taken from four different concerts across Australia, the 12 tracks here were digitally recorded in December 1994. Gil Matthews has completed the remastering of these historic recordings. Among the previously unreleased tracks are incendiary versions of Bo Diddley's Before You Accuse Me (Take A Look At Yourself), Jessie Mae Robinson's Let's Have A Party, Rufus Thomas' Walkin' The Dog and Thorpie's Rock 'n' Roll City, Looking For The Bright Lights & I Ain't Goin' Down Again. With superb sound quality this is genuine rock'n'roll from the Kings of Aussie Rock, the Sunbury Aztecs grown up and playing at the top of their game. /
