@Keith Morgan. I kept thinking that he was such a religious man, Southern Baptist, right? Not that Christians or Baptists don't smoke but where I live, around 175 miles from where Billy grew up, it's really frowned upon, particularly in the black Southern Baptist community. So I thought you were wrong but then I remembered when the Stones came here, to Texas in 1975 to San Antonio for 2 nights. Preston smoked so much off and onstage that had he not been as famous the Stone's might have fired him. Thanks, Keith, I'd forgotten about that.
I had the pleasure to see Billy Preston in 1975 at Stuttgart soccer stadium and the hash filled the air, he ran around the stage with the keyboard around his neck I was in the 2nd and the 5th artillery regiment and will never forget it
George Harrison was who suggested Billy has played with them, He was the fifth Beatle, A big master at the keys. That time he recorded Let it be by using a Fender Rhodes.
Sure, he was also with them on the roof concert, those brilliant riffs in Get Back are his. However most of the time he's right behind Paul and only peeps from behinds Macca's back for coupla seconds
He's an entertainer like no other I remember listening to him to the early '70s and honestly I couldn't tell you if you was black white Puerto Rican Chinese or whatever but I could tell you this he was talent...
Friends, if you want to see the highest level of skill and intuition on the keyboard there are very few in the rock genre and Billy Preston is one of them !!
I enthusiastically forget all of my abilities and just mash the piano trying to imitate Billy. This man just casually destroyed the keyboard and helped the Beatles like it was nothing.
This is a bad ass mix If this ever disappears, I'm gonna' repost it for Humanities sake. So far, I've been a checkin' several times a day (joke, kinda). Thanks man.
Hare Krishna! George Harrison took him along to the White House in 1974... (President's son invited George, as he was a Huge Fan! And generous George took not only Billy, but Ravi Shankar and his father (George's)... Hare Krishna!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching the crowd justa movin' and a groovin' while Billy was jammin'!!! Brings back carefree memories of going out to the discos back in the 70's! REALLY REALLY GOOD TIMES!!
George Harrison... He is friend of HARE KRISHNA PEOPLE 🥳 and we invite everyone, anyone, everybody to be always wealthy in the happiness of loving Krishna. That's the real wealth, because without loving Krishna, there's no wealth that brings happiness..... George took Billy to the White House when he got the invitation from the President's son in 1974.... 🎈🥳Happy new year 2023!
❣️ Prolific incredible, piano player, Billy Preston . And his voice and lyrics.. exceed, the other talented...always. Our Fifth Beatle. Sir William Preston.
@@edd7812 Yup. They were a little more eccentric for lack of a better word. Myself, I was wondering what it took someone 6 months to point that out. I'm just as guilty because I probably wouldn't have noticed but yeah, somebody needed to explain that one. Glad you did.
He started with Little Richard when he as 15 years old! Probably played more gospel than anything. Usually in the shadows he should've stayed out front. Genius writer! Died way too young from kidney failure. Still tops my list of best of shows!!!!
Went with George Harrison to the White House in '74 as invited by the President's son! Hare Krishna... We love you Billy. Your music is timeless. 🌟💙🌹💙🌹💙🎈🌟
Remember A Great Song ☕ Nothing From Nothing - Billy Preston 🇺🇸 / 🎼 / 🎹 (Soundzy Remix) 🙂 He Play (Beatles) Get Back 'Solo' Organ (1969) - & R Stones (73 / 76) 😉 Manu
@@robertmayes5232 yes, different styles....the Stones would benefit from Hopkins more than Preston. Funk vs Blues. Really depends on what sound the artist wants. Steve Vai probably would not be a good replacement for Malcom Young for example.
I was lucky enough to see Billy Preston New Haven coliseum 74-76 my buddy and I had about 46-inch blunts it was a pipe fest Noah potfest 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫🧐🧐🧐👌👌👌🥶🥶🤖🤖🤖
What Hendrix was to guitar, Billy Preston was to keyboards. Pure magic.
& Muhammad Ali to dance..👍
I second that.
ANd to afro's !
coz Man, that man is sporting some mean hairdo behind the ivory
Remember he played on the Get Back song...
He was a true entertainer and they don’t make them like that anymore. Whoever he learned the piano from must have been very good.
Billy Preston was a BAD DUDE!!! Pure genius on the piano. Side note.... this video was the longest he ever went without smoking a cigarette.

I love this song!, 1972
Billy was a musical power unto its own. He even helped the Beatles record the Abbey Road album.
Let it Be. He's incredible!! He made those songs really come together. Genius level of talent.
George Harrison was who suggested Billy has played with them, He was the fifth Beatle, A big master at the keys. That time he recorded Let it be by using a Fender Rhodes.
Yeah, what would have happened if Yoko Ono didnt help break up the Beatles? Might have been something with Billy now a member.Im fantasizing, I know.
Sure, he was also with them on the roof concert, those brilliant riffs in Get Back are his. However most of the time he's right behind Paul and only peeps from behinds Macca's back for coupla seconds
Yeah man! Those were the days for sure.
He's an entertainer like no other I remember listening to him to the early '70s and honestly I couldn't tell you if you was black white Puerto Rican Chinese or whatever but I could tell you this he was talent...
NOTHIN FROM NOTHIN ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS OF ITS TIME...BILLY PRESTON HAD SO MUCH TALENT ITS SCARY
Yes
I have never thumbs UP a comment written in all CAPS.... but for the 1st time, I have made the exception.
THE most underrated artist ever. A natural! Thank you for this.

Oh You Canadians!

Friends, if you want to see the highest level of skill and intuition on the keyboard there are very few in the rock genre and Billy Preston is one of them !!
Saw Billie with George Harrison and Ravi Shankar and Friends in the Omni, Atlanta, Ga, 1975...
HARE KRISHNA 🌺! (They all went to the White House in 1974, invited by Gerald Ford's son...) 😁🥳⭐🌟🎈⭐⭐🌟Happy 2023
Just Majestic, powerful
So much happiness in that whole scene. What a rush and what a time it was and a lift it was for so many. Thank you people...
Wow! The moment you first hear a song you love.
Since playing with Nat King Cole, to The Beatles to Rolling Stones, such a great musical Genius, now
He’s been playing on heaven!
I would of loved to see the two Billy’s together. Preston and Joel what a thrill to have them on stage jamming. Just a musical wish.
Just Majestic
Billy Preston rocks. RIP
God I loved this song when I was in the 6th grade!
I enthusiastically forget all of my abilities and just mash the piano trying to imitate Billy. This man just casually destroyed the keyboard and helped the Beatles like it was nothing.
Everyone looks to be having a great time, what a great song. Made my night finding this.
An awesome talent, they'll never be another. Thank you for all the great music Billy.
This is a bad ass mix

Billy
Billy also composed You are so Beautiful! Joe Cocker '75
Saw the Beates documentary. In sports they would call Billy a Ringer. To be able to come into that situation and to blast off. Amazing to see him jam.
this is tight
Nicholas K. Dam right
Cómo no moverse con este ritmo 😅
Dean Marrow you are on point
Cool mix!! The 5th Beatle!!

i mean, this started off kind of weird for me, but I dug it after a couple minutes.
Wahouuuu good vibes! We subscribe!
Que buen tema bien
Soundzy...did you make this video? Good job!
Billy Preston brought The Stones and The Beatles to the next level.....just sayin
So did Nicky Hopkins, if not even more than Billy, then certainly as much.
You’re totally right 👍🏼
Pure knowledge, most people don't know that. He was instrumental in the Beatles success and The Stones.
That's why he is called the 5th Beatles and is a shame many people don't know about it👏
@@robertmayes5232 yes, different styles....the Stones would benefit from Hopkins more than Preston. Funk vs Blues. Really depends on what sound the artist wants. Steve Vai probably would not be a good replacement for Malcom Young for example.
Don't you remember I told ya I'm a soldier in the war on poverty
Ringo would introduce him as the world's greatest B-3 player. Not an exaggeration. Certainly none better.
Next to Ray he was awesome rock on brother Billy
I always think of Eddie Murphy imitating his drunken stepfather in Raw when I hear this song lol
Nice
I'm a War soldier on poverty .think about-this situation
5 bEATLE
Hé ! I do not recognized preston like the same man singing mrs jones!!!!incredibly funny!!!
I was lucky enough to see Billy Preston New Haven coliseum 74-76 my buddy and I had about 46-inch blunts it was a pipe fest Noah potfest 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫🧐🧐🧐👌👌👌🥶🥶🤖🤖🤖
