- The audio in this documentary is captured from Billy Preston interviews. Billy Preston was a keyboardist, singer and song writer whose work encompassed R&B, rock, soul, funk, and gospel. Preston was a top session keyboardist in the 1960s, during which he backed artists such as Little Richard, Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, the Everly Brothers, Reverend James Cleveland, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. He gained attention as a solo artist with hit singles such as "That's the Way God Planned It", the Grammy-winning "Outa-Space", "Will It Go Round in Circles", "Space Race", "Nothing from Nothing", and "With You I'm Born Again". Additionally, Preston co-wrote "You Are So Beautiful", which became a #5 hit for Joe Cocker.
Preston is the only non-Beatle musician to be given a credit on a Beatles recording at the band's request; the group's 1969 single "Get Back" was credited as "The Beatles with Billy Preston".[3] He continued to record and perform with George Harrison after the Beatles' breakup, along with other artists such as Eric Clapton, and the Rolling Stones on many of the group's albums and tours during the 1970s. On May 12, 2021, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced that Preston would be inducted with the Musical Excellence Award.
even though he found success, the most criminally underrated artist probably of all time. not the 5th beatle, the most talented person to ever play with them and they all knew it

Beautiful deserved this for all that never knew now you know !!!
And you got to have something.. what a great song what a great musician what a great human being! Yeah he was a fifth Beatle but also he was much more and it's sad to me that as a solo artist he never got the respect that he deserved I put him in the same place that I put 1970s Stevie wondering with talking book Maybe half a step below but to even be in that same ballpark that's special. And to know the way his life wound up breaks my heart. This is a guy that contributed to music and so many ways and saved up and at the end that I loved even though I was in elementary school. He's was just a remarkable you and being in a remarkable musician and didn't get the credit that he deserved in his lifetime. I would say that as time goes by he would get that credit but now we live in age of if it didn't happen before I was born then it didn't happen. And that's really sad. That's social media. Here I am criticizing social media on RUclips but only because it's the only place where I can do it because people going to bars and don't talk to one another they look at their effing cell phones. So I looked at this video to feel good. Because I've always had a huge appreciation for Billy's contribution to the Beatles and Beyond and I got that but I have to say it's a shame that there's probably very few people under 40 years old at can get it. I feel like my generation has become the hipsters and the orange generation has become the establishment and that's really messed up. But if you live in mommy and daddy's basement and have lived a life where your parents transport you to every place you go to during your adolescence, and I'm not talking out of my ass because I was a teacher I saw this happen. I felt bad for these kids because they were allowed to develop organically. They weren't allowed the same opportunities I was to go out and play, it's a have disagreements within your social group and have to work them out without a grown up around, to figure out who you are sexually without somebody on social media telling you what you should or shouldn't feel and that being just being straight or gay is a binary choice. Personally I don't think a kid should have to think about their sexuality until they feel the urge to masturbate. Then it's time to have a conversation and it shouldn't be online and it shouldn't come from any group with any agenda whether it's religious or political or Pro gay or anti-gay or Pro whatever. Everybody's journey is individual, and today's young people and young adults didn't get that opportunity and I feel bad for them also I got to put my thumb out and go from one state to another and nobody messed with me. Probably because as a young kid I was allowed to go out and play it in the New Jersey New York area and you learned to have a feel for who's safe and who isn't. So by 15 16 when I had to hitchhike from the southeast to the Northeast I had an intrinsic feeling for who's safe and who isn't also people aren't as bad as you think they are or at least they weren't back then. And lastly I didn't contact my mother until I got to the place where I was going because I knew any mom is going to freak out when they think about their teenage son or daughter hitchhiking 5 600 MI. When I got on the interstate to start my journey it was 2:00 a.m. I didn't contact my mom till 14 hours later to tell her where I was. If she had known for 14 hours that I was hitchhiking it would have been hell for her. But the era I grew up in the 1970s, we got to and it was the last time I think we're people got to experience life and yes experience in life is dangerous and by the 90s everybody wanted to make everything safe. And of course somebody that hurts children for teenagers deserves a severe ass beating but are you going to develop living in a bubble? Billy Preston and the musicians of his era played and covered a lot of music from other artists at a very young age usually in bars and places that today we would consider unsafe. But that's where they grew and they would not have gotten to reach their pinnacle. And we would all be cheated of ever hearing that kind of music. Most bands from that era that became famous and influential went through their infancy and it was tough it was very tough. But that was part of the process so learn from Billy learn from the Beatles that sometimes you have to go to Hamburg for a couple years and it's precarious and you want to be aware of what's going on around you but it's necessary you're going to be okay you're going to grow. And in the long run you'll look back on your experience finally and laugh at how effed up it was but how necessary it was and how it made you better at what you do. What did Forest say? Oh yeah, that's all I have to say about that :-)
