Bill was also a close friend of William Clarke's in the early days.
 
He plays the harp solo on track 3 of the B side on the Hittin Heavy
LP from William's 1978 release. The tune is called Make Love To Me
and Shakey Jake Harris provides the vocals. 
 
Bill J was living in Las Vegas for a long time...but I understand that
he now resides in the Dallas area.
