Billy Preston: Always There

Billy Preston was always there. There when the Beatles needed a groove. There when the Stones, Dylan and others needed him. He was there in the early 70's with solo hits that made AM radio the sing-a-long fest it was during that decade. In the last part of his life he was still there whenever a name act needed him for a session or a concert gig. He was the go-to Soul session man. "Will it fly high like a bird up in the sky?" The sky just got a little bit more funky.
