Billy Joe Royal September 4, 2007

After success in both the country and pop fields, and hits that stretch from the 60s to the 90s, it's obvious that Billy Joe Royal is doing something right. More than 25 years since 'Down in the Boondocks' put Royal on the map, his R&B-tinged tenor is still thrilling radio listeners and concert-goers. He has had over a dozen hit singles, including 'I'll Pin A Note On Your Pillow,' 'It Keeps Right On Hurting' and 'Tell It Like It Is.'
