Childish Billy
CD
This 51 Track compilation is a look back at the more Rock N Roll aspects of his musical career which is why there's no spoken word or poetry on this album. In amongst the more well known bands (The Pop Rivets, the Milkshakes, Thee Mighty Caesars, Thee Headcoats, the Buff Medways and right up to date with his two current ensembles the Musicians of the British Empire & the Chatham Singers) are tracks he recorded solo and with other artistes like the Delmonas, Thee Headcoatees, Singing Loins, Kyra Rubella etc. Many of the tracks on this compilation have been unavailable for ages and some have never appeared on CD. Includes many unpublished photos on the cover and in a 12 page booklet.
