Billy Williams was one of the founding members of The Charioteers who had several hit records in the 1940s. Here we focus on the later part of his career as he forms his own Quartet before finally going solo in the late 1950s.
Featuring Billy's biggest hit "Sit Right Down and Write Myself A Letter" which was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic. Plus another great 28 tracks.
Wonderfully remastered by Tall Order Mastering and compiled and annotated by Ossie Dales this Billy Williams CD is a delight.
