Kool Kyle & Billy Bill

Members: Kool Kyle, Billy Bill

Kool Kyle & Billy Bill (William Waring) were, and still are, very close friends.

They met at The Disco Fever and constantly bumped ideas off each other. Eventually, inspired by Sir Joe Quarterman’s (I Got) So Much Trouble On My Mind, the duo penned Trouble and backed it with Old School which was written and recorded in one take in the studio. The track was engineered by Dave Ogrin and produced by Kurtis Blow, Danny ‘Nitro’ Harris (RIP) and Steve Breck.
