I remember that for me Rick Vito was a hired studio musician to replace LB and Billy was someone the whole band liked, who had frontman quality and could write songs plus he was fun to be around. I liked the "Mask" album when it came out, liked Billy's contributions, especially "Do you know" with Christine, I totally liked Billy when I saw FM on tour in 90. From an interview about the video for "As long as you follow" I know that Christine didn't take him seriously, but she has a long history in not taking the guitar player seriously. And why should she?
That's all, peace out.
