Billy was the guitarist of It's A Beautiful Day on the three albums, one of which was live, released from 1972 to 1973

A wonderful album to say the least, that I had recommended to a friend over forty years ago and a few years ago I borrowed it, but the rip I had done had some flaws and now I restored it!

I'll add that this rip sounds great, not because of any merit of mine, but because the Appaloosa recordings were the best, even on CD!

There is also a CD with two extra tracks but I have never seen it online.

Enjoy!
