Poor Mrs Jones, i feel sorry for her now...

May his soul rest in peace

One of the truly under recognized singers of his era. Philly was an incubation center of talent in the 70's.

A talent and person we'll miss.

R.I.P Billy ... another one gone ... MAN, too many in too short a period of time ...
"Me and Mrs. Jones" is one of the few songs I use a backing track for ... I played the song quite a bit a number of years ago performing in the piano lounge of this really nice restaurant ... every Friday this couple would come in ... he looked a few years younger than she, but she looked damned good ... they would sit at a table in a corner and really go at it ... the female wait staff would get a laugh out of me singing this song when that couple was there ...

BTW, Batchus...really funny and silly in a (just barely) appropriate form.


Thanks for the hip observation.

He was also the inventor of the hidden cigarette holder microphone. (as demonstrated in the video)
It wasn't very well received due to the "No Smoking in Restaurant" ban was put into effect.
