Influenced by floppy plastic vinyl 45s he bought second-hand in the local newsagent where he had two paper rounds, Billy fell in love with music because there was not much else to do in the 70’s / 80’s with no internet, cheap travel or sex-on-demand. By the time he came of age, the notorious rave scene started and following a stint as a guitarist in a local band, he gave up the axe, picked up some head-phones and bought two record decks. From there it was all 12 inches, white doves (not gloves!), rhubarb n custards and chicks.
