    Music World Loses Billy Preston


    Another sad day for music with the passing of Billy Preston.

    He played his killer keys for Mahalia Jackson in the beginning of his career and throughout the sixties and seventies added his talents to records from; King Curtis, Sly Stone, The Rolling Stones, Sam Cooke, Peter Frampton and of course, The Beatles. His solo hits from the seventies are still classics to this day and his albums should be in any music fan's library. His organ playing was pheonominal and he could be heard most recently on Michael McDonald's "Motown Two" album and The Red Hot Chili Pepper's Stadium Arcadium.


    Anyone who could compose a song like "You Are So Beautiful" is someone who will be missed by music lovers all over the globe.
