Susan Jacks Remembers "Which Way You Goin' Billy?"
I first met Susan Jacks (then Susan Pesklevits) on the set of Let\u2019s Go, Vancouver\u2019s weekly contribution to the CBC-TV series Music Hop. I co-hosted with Fred Latremouille. The show allowed Canadian talent to get exposure from coast-to-coast on television. Susan was a wonderfully talented, stunningly beautiful lady with a voice like silk.\n\nSusan married and divorced another Let\u2019s Go performer, Terry Jacks, but in between they created some of Canada\u2019s most memorable hit records as the Poppy Family. Terry was inducted into the BC Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2004 and Susan was inducted in 2010.\n\n50 years ago this week, the Poppy Family\u2019s \u201cWhich Way You Goin\u2019, Billy?\u201d reached #1 on music trade magazine Cashbox and #2 on Billboard (right behind The Beatles' The Long And Winding Road). It was Vancouver's first million-seller! Susan Jacks remembers how the song's title came about.
