Born on July 13, 1956, in Valley Stream, NY, Billy Falcon grew up in Rosedale, NY. Between 1978 and 1988, Falcon released a handful of albums on several different labels, including 1979's Improper Attire on United Artists and 1985's Billy and Myla on Columbia. Jon Bon Jovi, who had been a fan and remembered Falcon as a club draw in New Jersey, contacted Falcon about working together. Falcon signed a record deal with Mercury and Jon Bon Jovi helped produce the album Pretty Blue World, released in 1991. Despite musical contributions from Bon Jovi, Aldo Nova, Heartbreaker Benmont Tench, and Kenny Aronoff, as well as positive reviews, it only sold modestly. However, the optimistic "Power Windows" reached the Top 20 on the AOR charts and generated enough attention to cross into the pop Top 40 as well. |
