Another of the greats gone. A lot of people who listened to his music and shows but hadn't seen him thought he was black, but he was Greek.

Through his shows he introduced a lot of new stars in the 50s who went on to become greats in their own right. Cool

Bill Haley and the Comets sang Willie and the Hand Jive on the Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club TV program in England back about 1963.
