Harrogatesoul Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 how has no one mentioned "strange feeling" and "sitting in the park" yet? As a yound mod in the 80s Billy was one of the first 'go to' artists amongst myself and a few friends. Remember eagerly awating copies of 'Sitting In The Park' & 'Summertime' to arrive from PJ Ludlams cheapie list to come through. What a sad sad end to a young & brilliant talent. Is there much or any? unissued material on Billy available? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Remember eagerly awating copies of 'Sitting In The Park' & 'Summertime' to arrive from PJ Ludlams cheapie list to come through. What a sad sad end to a young & brilliant talent. Is there much or any? unissued material on Billy available? Off topic here... Pete Ludlam's lists, remember them well, you used to get some real good cheapo bargains off pete, if you trawled through his fifty or so paged lists, ending up with purple fingers from the ink coz he printed 'em on an old "bander" hand cranked duplicator!!! often wondered if he still does them lists...starting at 20p each or 6 for a quid! ...Anyway back on Topic... Adore the late great Billy Stewarts work...so unique. His last 45 (I think) put out just a few months before he was so tragically killed when he drove his car into a Nth Carolina river in Jan 1970 was his rendition of "By The Time I Get To Phoenix" here's the 45 edit, but the album cut is better coz its longer. also here's a Canadian label scan.... steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
charliew Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 What an artist just truly subline and makes every song his own, one of my faves by him is his version of paul robinsons OL, MAN RIVER quality Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Alan T Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 This was first done by Billys uncle Calvin, Billy covered it in 1964. Where all the copies went is a mystery, it's a very rare record to find. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulstrutter Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I went through a big Billy Stewart phase 20 odd years ago and bought everything I found by him ... many whilst working in Utrecht which had some good records shops on the canal ... dead cheap and many on Dutch only pic sleeves! I don't think many of his records are worth big money but I don't buy records for their value but for their quality. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The Yank Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Billy's 1st Chess was reviewed by Billboard and was said to be "a dangerous disk".
