Happy Billy Preston Day

Comments

  1. I was fortunate to hear him play on an Eric Clapton tour. Generally an organ or piano is much less expressive than a guitar or sax because you can't bend the notes, but Billy Preston could bring it to life like no other. Just the solo on "Get Back" would be enough to put him in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
    Plus I always loved these lyrics:
    "I've got a story ain't got no moral
    Let the bad guy win every once in a while"

The platform used for this blog is awfully wonky when it comes to comments. It may work for you, it may not. It's a Google thing, and beyond my control. Apologies if you can't get through. You can email me a comment at jackbogsblog@comcast.net, and if it's appropriate, I can post it here for you.
