He's alive and well, jamming the blues in Indiana. Every now and then I get to hear alittle "Mars Needs Women" riffs when he's playing at home. He was in Austin, last week and was able to play with When Not If (a group from Indiana that just moved to the fine city) at Freddie's Place and a couple of places in Cedar Park. Again, thx Chris for bringing back the history!

I paid homage to him during each performance of "Mars Needs Women," in which the word "women" was stretch out and all the while I imitated Billy's fantastic over-the-top vibrato which invited another bonus to that goofy end-of-chorus . . . not only was I loving Mr. Pringle but the quavering wah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah also drove home the point that the martians' space suits were nothing more than only slightly altered wet suites. Yay Billy. Yay the movie's director Larry Buchanan. Yay Buddy Womack (Dark Motive) for putting all the right riffs in all the right places. Yay E. A. Srere who brought up the idea that Mars Needs Women needed a song written about it (damn, should've been added to the legacy version). And Yay me. Just in general, yay me. Silly me, too. I report on this stuff like I was John Tesh reading a story from a desk on the set of E News Daily. Yeah. I'm important. So is my kid, but I don't allow him the same pleasures that I enjoy. His spurts of importance are forbidden by me to go to his head. I love you Jon.chriswinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900696705266351600noreply@blogger.com
