    BILLY JOE ROYAL by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” newspaper Decatur, IL. © 2003 When Billy Joe Royal recorded the 1965 debut pop hit, “Down In The Boondocks,” the Georgia singer/songwriter had no idea he’d top the country charts twenty years later with the 1985 smash, “Burn Like A Rocket.” ”I never thought I was going to have another hit record,” says Royal, who will perform at Nashville North USA on Saturday. Royal grew up in a musical family and listened to a variety of styles on the Georgia radio stations. ”I was really lucky to always be around music as a kid,” Royal says. “My uncle had a band, my grandmother played, my whole family played. And the local radio stations would play three or four different formats a day. You’d get a country thing during the afternoon, then black gospel until sundown and at night you’d get rhythm and blues. It was just the best thing ever.” Royal appeared on his uncle’s radio show in his hometown of Valdosta, Ga., at the age of eleven. By fourteen, Royal became a regular on the Friday night Atlanta-based radio show, “Georgia Jubilee,” with the likes of Ray Stevens, Jerry Reed, Joe South, Freddy Weller and various Grand Ole Opry stars. When the Georgia Jubilee broke up, Royal landed a job at the Bamboo Ranch in Savannah, Ga. ”It was a huge club,” Royal says. “We played six nights a week, five hours a night. We had some big name R&B and country acts play there like Roy Orbison, Fats Domino, The Isley Brothers, Sam Cooke, Ray Price, Marty Robbins and George Jones.
