The maturity of a very talented musician shines forth here with such passion and heart. You live on in so many who were rocked by your music and presence as I was from '68 to '74 when I lived in Melbourne.Thanks for the music and memories.........from an old fan in Canada.
IM IN TEARS JUZ HANG LOVES PORTRAIT IN THE CATHEDRAL OF YOUUUUR HEART!!!!!! ITZ AN HONOUR TO HAVE LIVED IN YOUR TIME!!!!!!! AND DEEP DOWN INSIDE YOU YOULL FIND A GENTLE VOICE TO GUIDE YOU!!!! SO IN TOUCH WITH ALL OF US!!
Love You Billy ..i still get shivers when i hear you ..Since your been gone i really miss you ..Thanks for your words and thoughts in your phone call to me after my accident ..I cannot say in words what it meant to me and helped my recovery in ways no one will ever really know !
In the 70's I was in a local band in Brisbane, we all went to Toowoomba to see Billy live at the showgrounds. He was amazing. On the way back to Brisbane we stopped at a roadhouse and Billy was there.He was so friendly and caring for us after he found out we were in a band. He was playing at the Chevron Hotel in Surfers Paradise the next week. He said come along and mention my name at the door and I'll get you in for free. He acknowledged us in the audience. What a talented sweet man.
Mate what can i say, just magic, you gave me the pleasure of watching you live on stage when you invited me to castle hill tavern (not too sure on the place).Then had me backstage when you signed one of your vinyls. R I P OzRock man sal
Bought Tangier 3 days ago, listened to it when I wnet for a run and this track hit me where I live...just sublime, I sent this track to my wife who has been traveliing for 6 months and I miss her like crazy...that's who Billy is singing about.
A great track. Tell me please who is Billy singing about? I read this is one of the tracks from the "Tangier" album which has taken 10 years to make and sadly he passed on before it was released.
