	Billy Martin - Free net encyclopedia
		As a manager, Martin was known for being able to win with any team, and for arguing animatedly with umpires, including a widely parodied routine where he kicked dust on their feet, but he was criticized for not getting along with veteran players, burning out young pitchers, and drinking too heavily.
		Born and raised in Berkeley, California, Martin was born to a father of Portuguese descent and a mother of Italian ancestry, who separated after Martin was born.
		Martin resurfaced with the Oakland Athletics, where he perfected a style of play that became known as "Billyball." He won the Western Division title in the split season of 1981 but was fired when the 1982 Athletics plumeted to a 68-94 record.

		Billy worked as a rock journalist for “Changes,” and also recorded a commercial for “Bachmann's Pretzels” with legend Chubby Checker, before releasing his first solo album entitled “Cold Spring Harbor,” in 1971 through Columbia, which contained all original songs.
		Billy was disappointed and embarrassed by the album because it had been mastered at the wrong speed making his voice sound unusually high-pitched, although this album would eventually be re-mastered at the correct speed and re-released in 1981.
		Billy has recently released a special "boxed set" consisting of 4 Cd's: Greatest Hits Volume I, Greatest Hits Volume II, Greatest Hits Volume III and a special 4th CD of interviews and some unreleased stuff.

		the basement of the martin house was where billy tinkered with the drums, his father's recording equipment (pop was an early audiophile), his junior chemistry set and even with pot (a seventies thing?).
		Billy started to tour as a regular in various bands - he and montiero formed the samba group BATUCADA and played the brazilian circuit in nyc for 2 years.

	MetroActive Music \| Medeski, Martin, & Wood
		That has been apparent from the beginning, as their debut recording, 1992's Notes from the Underground, served notice that Medeski, Martin, and Wood were ready to include in the group's musical mix most anything they ever had heard.
		And while he is unquestionably the keeper of the beat, Martin insists the creation of the groove is not just his contribution.
		Unlike their previous disc, Shack-Man, which was cut in the remote Hawaiian studio that inspired its name, the new set was recorded in New York City, and is informed by the urban edge of that environment, as well as the relatively generous amount of time the threesome had to prepare it.
