    Highly and Extremely Talented Human Being. He brought us so much joy & happiness via His GOD given gifts, talent, and overall genuis.
    His talent as a Gospel Artist was just as, if not more impressive than his R&B & Pop portfolio.
    He is surely missed. Thank GOD His Spirit lives on in our Hearts & Souls Forever.
    Good Night Brother Preston. We will see You in The Morning.

    I lived down the road from the hospital where he passed .. I was pulling out of my complex on the year anniversary that he had passed and sitting at the corner intersection with the radio on... When they had a tribute to Billy Preston that day and it was a goose bump moment, knowing that I was sitting in front of the hospital that he had died a year later!! I just absolutely loved him and it was an honor to be there at that time.❤😊

    What a great talent Billy Preston was. I generally remember this song (I was 8 when it came out). Didn't think much of it then. Now I really appreciate it.

    @RADone65 11 месяцев назад +6

    I am no keys player. I'm trying. The foot work throws me a bit and watching this MASTER whoop that piano's backside...sliding back and forth on the bench, all while never missing a beat or note is AMAZING! And it really proves just how much he really loved performing!
    It's like he really wants to get up and dance, but he's got another job he has to do right now.
    I'm almost 60 and this song still amazes me!

    Many people did not know that Billy Preston was gay - He died June 6,2006 age 59 in Scottsdale, Arizona - Preston had suffered kidney disease in his later years, brought on by his hypertension. He received a kidney transplant in 2002, but his health continued to deteriorate. He had voluntarily entered a drug rehabilitation clinic in Malibu, California, at the suggestion of guitarist Is'real Benton, and suffered pericarditis there, leading to respiratory failure that left him in a coma from November 21, 2005
