Ballard, Jr., in El Paso, Texas, on May 24, 1931. Clint Ballard is best remembered as a successful pop songwriter, whose tunes have been heard on ten million recordings in both the United States and Great Britain. Ballard’s most notable songs include “You’re No Good” and “Game of Love.”
Ballard’s mother encouraged him to play music at an early age. When he was just three years old, Ballard performed piano on the radio. At the age of eleven, he attended a program for gifted young musicians at North Texas State Teachers College (present-day University of North Texas) in Denton. He went on to attend the State University of Iowa (present-day University of Iowa) and graduated from what is today the University of Texas at El Paso with a degree in radio studies. While in college, Ballard spent much of his time directing fraternity choirs and dance bands.
Upon graduating from college, Ballard joined the United States Army. After serving as a radio operator in Japan, Ballard moved to New York City to pursue a career in music and often played piano in nightclubs. On a trip to Washington, D.C., in 1957, he discovered the harmony duo the Kalin Twins. Impressed by the brothers, Ballard managed the group and secured them a recording contract with Decca. Ballard wrote the Kalin Twins’ first single, “Jumpin’ Jack.” However, it was not until three months later that the twins scored their first hit with “When,” written by Paul Evans and Jack Reardon, not by Ballard. Too devoted to his own songwriting to focus on the Kalin Twins’ career, Ballard went on to write “Ev’ry Hour, Ev’ry Day of My Life” in 1958. It became a hit in the United Kingdom for British balladeer Malcolm Vaughn.
Ballard’s “Hey Little Baby” became the theme song for the 1958 World’s Fair in Belgium after Mitch Miller and his orchestra recorded the single on the B side of “March From the River Kwai.” In 1960 Ballard co-wrote the hit “Good Timin’” with Fred Tobias. Singer Jimmy Jones took the song to the top of the British charts and to Number 3 on the _Billboard_ Hot 100 in the United States. Following this success, Ballard wrote “Game of Love,” which was recorded by Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders. The song became a Number 1 hit in the United States and a Number 2 hit in Britain in 1965. He scored his first Number 1 hit in Britain with “I’m Alive” for the Hollies in 1965. In 1987 “Game of Love” was featured in the film _Good Morning, Vietnam_ , starring Robin Williams. Although Ballard often wrote with a partner, he penned Linda Ronstadt’s Number 1 single “You’re No Good,” by himself. The song was featured on Ronstadt’s _Heart Like a Wheel_ album, released in 1974. “You’re No Good” had previously been recorded by Dee Dee Warwick and Betty Everett in 1963. The song also was covered by the Swinging Blue Jeans in 1964 and became a Top 10 hit in Britain. “You’re No Good” was featured in the movie _My Best Friend’s Girl_ in 2008. Other songs written by Ballard include “Gingerbread” by Frankie Avalon, “There’s Not a Minute” by Ricky Nelson, and “Gotta Get a Hold of Myself” by the Zombies.
Ballard settled in Dallas in 1981 and then moved thirty-five miles north to Denton three years later. He eventually left the music business and became a real estate investor and manager. In 2006 Ballard suffered a stroke, and his health deteriorated in the years that followed. On December 23, 2008, Clint Ballard died at his home in Denton at the age seventy-seven. He is in the Honor Roll of Songwriters in the West Texas Music Hall of Fame.

Clint Ballard Jr., a pop songwriter who crafted the No. 1 hits “You’re No Good” for Linda Ronstadt in 1975 and “Game of Love” a decade earlier, has died. He was 77.
Although he often worked with a partner, the Texas native wrote“You’re No Good”alone. The song had already been recorded by R&B; singers Dee Dee Warwick and Betty Everett when Ronstadt included it on the “Heart Like a Wheel” album that marked her emergence as a bona fide star.
For the British group Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders, Ballard wrote“Game of Love”and their version was featured in the 1987 Robin Williams film “Good Morning, Vietnam.”
Born May 24, 1931, in El Paso, Ballard graduated from what is now the University of Texas at El Paso with a bachelor’s degree in radio studies.
After discovering the harmony duo the Kalin Twins in Washington, D.C., in 1957, Ballard became the brothers’ manager and wrote their first single, the cheerful “Jumpin’ Jack.” Three months later, they recorded their one hit, “When,” written by Ballard’s friend Paul Evans and Jack Reardon.
Mitch Miller and his orchestra recorded Ballard’s “Hey Little Baby” on the B side of “March From the River Kwai.” The Ballard tune was used as the theme for the 1958 World’s Fair in Belgium.
In 1960, Jimmy Jones reached No. 3 on the Billboard charts with a playful song that Ballard co-wrote called “Good Timin’ ” that included the lyrics: “Who in the world would’ve ever known what Columbus could do if Queen Isabella hadn’t hocked her jewels in 1492. But she had timin.’ ”
Writing for the close harmonies of the Hollies, Ballard came up with “I’m Alive” for the British pop group and it became a No. 1 single overseas. He also wrote the nonsensical “Gingerbread” for Frankie Avalon. With others, Ballard wrote Rick Nelson’s “There’s Not a Minute” and the Zombies’ “Gotta Get a Hold of Myself.”
In the late 1970s, Ballard moved to Dallas and later settled in Denton, where he became a real estate investor.
Ballard had no immediate survivors.

The**Kalin Twins**(born February 16, 1934), also known as**Hal and Herbie** , were an Americanpopsinging,songwritingand recording duo, formed in 1958 by twin brothers Harold Kalin and Herbert Kalin. The duo is best remembered for their number one 1958 hit ""When"".[2]
A few weeks later they metClint Ballard Jr., the writer of many hit records such as ""Good Timin'"" forJimmy Jones, and ""I'm Alive"" forThe Hollies. Ballard offered to help them. ""We got an appointment with the Decca people,"" Herbie recalled, ""and Jack Pleis signed us up. We had a record session right away but the first record was a bomb, and it seemed an awful long time till the next.""[5]
In 1958, after searching through piles of writers' demo tapes, Clint Ballard (now the Kalins' manager) discovered the song ""When"", written byPaul Evansand Jack Reardon.[6]The twins cut ""Three O'Clock Thrill"" and ""When"" in April 1958, with Decca's Jack Pleis conducting the music. The record label wanted to promote ""Three O'Clock Thrill"" and released it as a single with ""When"" on the B-side, but Hal and Herbie preferred ""When"" and persistently plugged it on their nightclub tours. Ultimately ""When"" caught on, and Decca reissued the record with ""When"" now as the A-side. It shot to number five on the American charts, and hit number one on theUK Singles Charton September 13, 1958. ""When"" sold over two million copies.[7]The track remained in the UK listings for eighteen weeks, five of which were at Number One.[8]They had no further UK chart entries.
