Bill Fay

Bill Fay is a singer, pianist and songwriter from England. He made one single ("Some Good Advice") and two albums (Bill Fay and Time of the Last Persecution) for the Deram label between 1967 and 1971. These recordings did not sell well: poor promotion and distribution were blamed. Fay was dropped from Deram soon after the release of his second album.
