Sad, sad news.
What a life a lived though. His books had some amazing stories in them and if half the stuff he said happened were true, then it's a miracle he lived this long.
RIP

Aussie Rock legend! It must have been an exciting time when Billy was rockin the world. Regretfully I was born after that era, but talking to some old timers brings a glint to their eyes. Billy was the catalyst for a whole generation of Aussie rockers. AC/DC, the Angels, Rose Tatt etc etc. His effect is immeasureable .....and he was a Pom - Go figure.
My favourite anecdote was about the time when "Billy Killed the Fish"
Have a search for it, a classic aussie rock story.
