	CMT.com : Gerry Rafferty : Biography
		Gerry Rafferty was born in Paisley, Scotland in 1947, the son of a Scottish mother and an Irish father.
		Billy Connelly was impressed not only with the songs but with their author, and suddenly the Humblebums were a trio.
		Rafferty was in the group, then out, then in again as the line-up kept shifting-their first album was a success, the single "Stuck In The Middle With You" a huge hit, but nothing after that clicked commercially, and by 1975 the group was history.

	Billy's Folk Singing Years
		Billy fell in with the Folkie crowd, who were the wild hippie types of the time, with long hair, drugs, and all the trappings of wild-child status.
		Billy was not an outstanding member at the time, and is remembered by the others as the young, tall, shy welder.
		Billy was living the high life at this time - gigging around the country, continually on the road, drink and all-night parties.

	Gerry Rafferty: Folk Roots Interview (1988)
		And then Rafferty – always an intensely private man whose skirmishes with the press tended to be few and far between at the best of times – disappeared.
		When Billy and I went our own separate ways it was quite amicable at the time because it was obvious that Billy’s jokes were getting longer and longer and the songs were getting shorter and shorter.
		But I’d been on the dole before I met Billy and it was good from the point of view that we travelled light – just an acoustic guitar and a banjo – and for a concert I suppose we got about £100 which was cash in hand.

		Billy tells The Observer that not confronting his father about the abuse is the Òbiggest disappointment of my lifeÓ.

	Humblebums: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		Not long after the album's release, budding singer/songwriter Gerry Rafferty [+] (a former member of a beat group called Fifth Column) approached the duo after one of their gigs for feedback on his original songs.
		Rafferty's songs soon took a prominent place in their repertoire, which led to friction with Tam Harvey; he departed around half a year into Rafferty's tenure.
		Rafferty's material had a more serious bent than Connolly's lighthearted, dryly witty offerings, and Connolly's comedy bits were taking up a large portion of the Humblebums' stage show, to the point where Rafferty wanted him to cut the comedy altogether.

	Halcyon Days 1980-81 Season
		Brian Kidd, yes Fergy's former lanky lap-dog, bags himself a dubious hat-trick as we tumble to the foot of the table.
		The first goal deflects off Billy Rafferty's arse after a "technical error" by Kevin Carr.
		Another of Kidd's goals is an on-the-line tap-in that stole the glory from one of his colleagues.

		The return of Mick Martin to the midfield, after a year on the sidelines through injury provided the required boost, although Preston brought it back level after being two down.
		Goals from Gordon Coleman and former Magpie Alex Bruce looked to have earned a point before a late attempt from Billy Rafferty was unwittingly diverted in by Bobby Shinton.
