This episode is on thought provoking chart topper Billy Field and his classic hit song, Bad Habits.
Our special guest is the man himself, Billy Field.
Billy Field was one of the most popular musicians in Australian in the early 1980’s
Fusing Jazz and Pop, Billy's distinctive husky vocals and piano playing saw him top both the singles and album charts and his songs have been recorded by International superstars such as Mick Fleetwood and David Lee Roth.
While he is best know as the piano thumping and jumping scat man, Billy first came to the attention of music fans as the bass player in schoolboy psychedelic rock band King Fox
King Fox were like the Silverchair of their day – while all the bands members where still at school, they won a Sydney radio competition in 1970.
