Great piece Jay! SO much interesting stuff. Interesting dude. Singing at Torre's wedding- wow. Hangin' and banging' with the Rat Pack- wow. Must've been a good musician or all the guys on that bus woulda tossed that thing out onto the highway.
Wills has a great story in his book about him playing his banjo on a team plane while it was flying through bad turbulence. The plane took a big hit, he stopped playing and everyone got dead quiet. Someone yelled “you better keep playing that fucking banjo!” He went back to playing.

Thanks for the feedback, Bob! Makes my day every time!
Mr. Wills was a man of many talents! Love this series!
