Been working hard for the last couple of months on a selection of songs for the New Album; some old favourites revisited and reworked (the way I always wanted them!) and some new titles written with my brother Mike.

Most of this hot and sunny July has been spent working hard 'in the box' in Shepherds Bush at A Major Recording Studio. Sadly the Studio will close at the end of August, so I'm making the most of every day spent in there.

Here's a selection of messages from the last two website's guestbooks dating back to 1999! Have a read and please leave your message on this the new website if you would like to by clicking Guestbook on the navigation bar above.

Hi Everyone. It's been hectic already this year. Thanks to the Billy Nicholls Yahoo Group (see Links); who keep us up to speed on any 'Would You Believe Album' news. 'A copy in near-mint state sold for US$9,700 on eBay on March 7.' Amazing!

Originally published on Saturday 1st April 2006. Billy Nicholls is known for a wonderful album released in the sixties entitled Would You Believe.

I was born February 15th 1949 on the White City Estate at home, Creighton Close, Bloemfontein Road, Shepherds Bush, London. 2. How did you first become interested in music? When was this? Did you buy records regularly?

Morgan has been so busy touring with The Streets that it has been stop and start trying to finish the album. It is now complete and I am getting the cover together.

I'm back in the studio in Shepherds Bush again, recording a new album with my brother Mike and son Morgan. It has a more ethnic feel than previous recordings; with several songs co-written by Paddy Moloney of the Chieftains; who all play on one of the tracks.

Originally published on Wednesday 17th April 2002 Hi everyone, The big space between newsletters means nothing exciting to report. However, I'm always writing songs and am currently working towards making two new albums. One of them will definitely be more acoustic than those I've already produced. I'm still working extensively with Morgan, and sometimes with my daughter Amy.
