BILL & SUE-ON HILLMAN:
A 50-YEAR MUSICAL ODYSSEY

100 OLDIES FROM OUR PAST
www.hillmanweb.com/cd

During the '70s decade we were Canada's most prolific "Indie" recording act.
We recorded 12 albums and many charted singles on our Maple Grove label and
worked on many other recording and video projects --
over half of this material was recorded in three English studios during our tours of the UK.


Hillman/UK Connection

Many advances have been made in recording techniques over the last 30 years
and we hope to resume our recording careers making use of 21st Century technology. . .
Meanwhile, however . . .

Listen to almost 100 song samples from our '70s Albums:
