Until I clicked your link.

So cool.

The Guitar break that kicks in at 1.28 is so tasty. Many thanks

I bought the Twilley album when I was 15 or 16 and played it non-stop for weeks. Still love to put it up on YouTube now that I have no record player🤪

He was my second cousin. I hadn't seen him since we were kids, 18 or so. Very talented guy; always had a guitar and could play all the mid and late 60's guitar licks on the radio.

His dad played drums and had a big band in Tulsa. His dad, Bill Pitcock III was called Little Bill by family. And his son Bill Pitcock IV was Little Billy by family. Maybe also by close friends but I don't know about that.

And Bill Pitcock IV had a son, Bill Pitcock V. Maybe he's Baby Billy. Nod to The Righteous Gemstones.

He was a mainstay of the Tulsa music scene. Welcome guest at Leon Russell's. Once again, a very talented guy. He was better known by fellow guitar players than by the general public outside of Tulsa.
