Cherry Hill Park is the song I remember.

One of the greatest recording artists ever.

He was supposed to be singing in Jackson, Tennessee, Saturday as many of us had tickets to see the oldies show. Ow. RIP Billy Joe.

He was my first rock concert. I was 5 or 6, Dad was in Vietnam, and Mom took me to see BJR warm up for Paul Revere and the Raiders.

He went the way I want to ... Suddenly

I do not want IV’s and extended bed rest, it isn’t the way I live, won’t be the way I die.

RIP Billy Joe Royal
