Aztecs Live! At Sunbury included eight tracks from their set.[4] The double LP peaked at number 4 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart in September 1972.[1] In mint condition, the original LP release, with pop-up inserts, is much sought after by collectors.[4] A CD version was released in 2007 by Aztec Music, as Live at Sunbury by Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs.[5]
In October 2010, Aztecs Live! At Sunbury (1972) was listed in the book, 100 Best Australian Albums.[6]
The album is not to be confused with their previous album, entitled Aztecs Live, which was first released in 1971 and peaked at number 8 in the Australian album chart in April 1972.[1]
