January 12 - Billy T James

LOL, found this memorable selection from the irrepressible Billy T James, 17 January 1948 - 7 August 1991. It's been forever since I listened to him! Love the giggle!!!!! :-) 

Billy T was one of the most successful international New Zealand entertainers of the 70's and 80's, famous for his skits and singing. People remember him with much fondness and hilarity.  

He changed his name from William James Te Wehi Taitoko to Billy T James because, in his own words, 'it was something the Australians could pronounce.' 

Here he sings 'We Want To Wish Yous A Maori Christmas.'
