Billie Jo Spears Dies
No funeral arrangements were available at press time, according to the Tennessean.
Spears’ first hit was “Mr. Walker, It’s All Over,” and she had a No. 1 hit in 1975 with “Blanket On The Ground.” Spears may have lost her traction in the U.S. but had a viable touring career overseas and had shows lined up next year in Liverpool, Glasgow, Croyden and other European locations.
