- The TRUTH About Billy Preston (1946 - 2006) Billy Preston Life Story
Billy Preston is an essential part of the fabric of rock & roll. He blazed a path with the smoking sounds of his B3 organ, and the exciting tones of his gospel-inspired vocals and piano. Although he enjoyed a period of solo success with 1970s soul smashes like "Will It Go Round in Circles," "Nothing from Nothing," and the Grammy-winning funk instrumental "Outa-Space," keyboardist, singer, and songwriter Billy Preston was best known for his prolific work as a sideman and collaborator throughout R&B, rock, soul, and gospel music. A self-taught child prodigy, the Houston native cut his teeth as a teenager in the late '50s and early '60s backing up Little Richard, Sam Cooke, and later, Ray Charles.
Known for his big smile and an even bigger afro, Billy Preston died though in an avalanche of health, legal and financial problems. It was easy to forget the dizzying talent behind early albums bearing titles like The Wildest Organ in Town and The Most Exciting Organ Ever. Preston had been unresponsive since the previous November, in fact, when he finally died on June 6, 2006. Recurrent drug problems framed his final days, decades after close collaborations with the Beatles led to a string of solo hits in the '70s and a lengthy stint with the Rolling Stones.
At 59, Preston had voluntarily entered rehab, where acute respiratory failure brought on by swelling around his heart pushed him into a coma. A battle over his estate raged for a decade longer. None of it matched up with Preston's lighthearted public persona. He was specifically invited into the sessions that produced the Beatles' Let It Be in order to keep the peace among the band's warring factions.

Thank you for this mini documentary and Billy Preston for his wonderful musical contributions

He really WAS super talented.
RIP Billy Preston
I have always adored Billy Preston since I was a very, very young child. He came to Europe and stayed a long time because he was warmly and rightfully accepted as both a black man and a gay man. I am so very sorry to hear of his early trauma at the hands of evil men. Mr. Preston certainly transmuted his sorrow into something beautiful, now a loving and lasting gift for all the ages. RIP Billy and thank you.
Well said. RIP Billy Preston
Such a talented artist. His contribution will be everlasting for generations to come.❤
RIP Billy Preston
