It was always Billy, even though Jimmy is the most talented musician in that band.




Yes to the first part, but no to the second. Billy is a genuine musical phenom. I don't remember the details, but he won a reward in Chicago as a kid for the best pianist in the State (or something to that extent... again it's been a while so the details are hazy). Whatever it was, it was highly prestigious recognition.

James is a good balance to Billy, but Billy is truly a musical genius. Also the dude has been an interesting person in all the right ways over the last few decades. He went off the deep end in the late 90s, but he resolved and humbled himself later in life.

Still, Jimmy is a better drummer than Billy is a guitarist, pianist, bass player or singer.

Now as a multi-instumentalist, he can do more but as far as talent for an instrument goes, Jimmy is a more talented drummer than people realize. I actually like billy and the SP first 3 albums.

Eta

And the B sides to the Zero single.
