Thanks to all the comments that I have received to let me know that Billy is alive and doing well. As a matter of fact he and Desi have formed a new group with Dino's brother Ricci Martin called Ricci, Desi and Billy. It turns out that Billy kept busy as a member of the Beach Boys back up band for years. He also produced albums with Carl Wilson. How did he get such great work? Maybe being Carl Wilson's brother-in-law would have something to do with it. I am sure that he got the jobs due to being a fine musician. After all the Beach Boys don't hire you unless you are really good. You can go to Ricci, Desi and Billy.com to buy their CD's and find out more about this new group.
Another commenter said that Billy will be doing a Forgotten Hits interview. You can e-mail them at The60sShop@aol.com to ask Kent about this or to subscribe to their letter.

Hey pallie Rick, no problemo dude...always so glad to pass on info related to Dino Martin and his boypallies!!!
Hey Rick. Thanks pallie for blogging about this new group. It's awesome that Ricci has formed a band with Desi Jr. and Billy. While Ricci had never replace his bro Dino Jr., it's nice that he's gotten together with his old friends to sing some tunes.
