Billy J. Kramer

Billy J. Kramer took part in the British Invasion, coming to America and performing a number of his hit songs on the Ed Sullivan Show, just like four of his friends from Liverpool did a few months earlier. In fact, several of the songs he performed were written by Paul and John, who wanted to write songs for other artists as well as for themselves. The Beatles and Billy also shared the same manager, Brian Epstein, who Billy helped get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, thanks to a song he wrote called "To Liverpool with Love."
