Thorpie's musical career started "Under The Bridges Of Paris"

I found these great VINYLS! But please be quick there were not many available when I looked. 21ST CENTURY MAN VINYL BUY NOW EAST OF EDEN'S GATE VINYL BUY NOW CHILDREN OF THE SUN VINYL BUY NOW "I took my first breathe on March 29th, 1946 in Manchester England, but life really began for me when I heard "Sur la du pont Paris" ("Under the bridges of Paris") on the radio in Blackpool England when I was 3 or 4 years old. Somehow that syrupy, sentimental French love song with its accordions and Mantovanni style strings got inside my 4 year old head and I was hooked.  From that moment I couldn't get enough of music. Any music. I loved it and it was in 1956 in a tiny church hall on the fringes of Brisbane, Australia, that my own music career got its start. I played my first gig at the age of 10 and within 6 months was performing regularly on local TV and doing gigs.      - Billy Thorpe Source: Thorpie's  WEBSITE Billy Thorpe was born in Manchester, Eng
