I mean look at this for a band line up

Billy Preston – vocals, piano, organ, tack piano, backing vocals; electric piano
George Harrison – electric and acoustic guitars, Moog synthesizer, sitar
Eric Clapton – electric guitar
Keith Richards – bass
Ginger Baker – drums, tambourine

I saw Billy Preston in '73 opening for Grand Funk Railroad. GFR was pretty good but BP blew them off the stage

Hahaha, well Mel Schumacher's 'do wasn't far behind in those days. But for me, Mel was the one who really got his nuts handed to him that night, I dunno who BP's bassist was on that tour but he was just a fecking monster. As a young bass player I was amazed.

I saw Billy Preston with the Rolling Stones in '75. He ruled, they sucked. Saw Preston again with Ringo Starr in the '90s. He stole the show.

I do love the first album by the Traveling Wilburys. Too bad Roy Orbison passed soon afterwards. Each ex-Beatle made at least one -and in a few cases- several great albums. Each has had some stinkers too. Hard to pick whose best for me.

I had forgotten all about Billy Preston through the years. Good to be reminded.
