RIP Billy.

Was he still knocking off Mrs Jones or was that all over by the time of his demise ?

Me and Mrs Jones was a great song, it was played all night long in the night club in Alpbach in Austria back in the 70's when I went skiing. Even I danced to it, many times. Great memories.

RIP Billy

He never paid the hotel bill. Things went pear shaped after that as the hotel sent it to Mr.Jones.

Oh dear. They should of stayed in that coffee shop just holding hands and listening to their favourite songs on the jukebox.

Not just Billy Paul; African star Papa Wemba dropped dead on stage at the weekend. He was an act I'd seen a few times and was a big fave of mine - been playing his music all day.

This is really turning out to be a crap year
