Billy Preston - How Great Thou Art

[@laidyeh]

I've never in my 65 yrs., seen anyone do a run on bass pedals before...Billy was anointed...Hands, and feet...May he SIEP...

[@chasca23]

That was the Holy Ghost talking through his fingers. By the end of the song I was weeping uncontrollably. Thank you for posting and thank God for this talented messenger of God.

[@caseymusic]

Billy Preston was to the organ what Jimmy Hendrix was to the guitar. A unique soul that left all in awe.

[@playonkorg]

Jimmy would have liked that honor to be associated with such greatness

[@gfujigo]

Amen!

[@neusalix5209]

I am so sorry that i didn't know about this great musician while he was still alive. But at least with all the videos posted I am able to hear him playing and singing. Hope he is in Heaven playing.

[@robertjackson9921]

Billy played organ on Sam Cooke's 'Little Red Rooster' when he was only 16.....outstanding !

[@EMWBOI07]

Simply one of the greatest organist that ever played and lived!

[@anjeffy65]

Not only could this man palaayy the organ, he was gifted with a beautiful and versatile singing voice.

[@529068]

There will never be another like Billy Preston...

[@mcmiraclevalley]

Billy was one of the best master organist and rest in peace: Rev. Michael Capps, Ph.D

[@b3metall]

Kids now days think that all the progressive chords are do cool but this is the real deal. Billy is one of Themistocles Anointed players in history. RiP

[@directorofmusc]

[@stevenconnelly1468]

Everytime I hear an organ, I think of not only a church, but also the 70s.

[@scottfleming6166]

God gave Billy a great gift and Billy shared it with all of us.

[@TheMysteriousM]

He didn't need recording "tricks", he was the real DEAL...RIP, Billy P...and thanks for the music you left us.

[@denean8093]

This is SO POWERFUL!!! It stirs my soul and makes me reflect and rejoice in the goodness of the Almighty GOD!

[@davidmccall4776]

Billy could squeeze every last tone that a Hammond B-3 is capable of out of it, and sometimes more!🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹👑🛐✝️

[@jonathanhooper3966]

Ray Charles to Beatles to Gospel to his own thing: Billy Preston was the MAN.

[@alanabrahams2232]

HE SHOULD BE IN THE R&R HOF................not KISS!

[@thebluray]

I thought the organ was going to get up and start walking by itself. WOW!!

[@POPAWOLF]

Mr Billy Preston and that Hammond B3 were just Praising God! Let Everything that hath Breath Praise the Lord!

[@wilsonantonio6587]

Amen May the Lord be praised!

[@51362879]

I'm speechless. Preston didn't play just with his hands, he played from the very depths of his soul! To God the Father be ALL Glory and Praise!

[@gospelpiano]

Billy Preston-King of the B3 Hammond Organ Twinkie Clark-Queen of the B3 Hammond Organ!!

[@michaelcooper6953]

Facts! :-)

[@laidyeh]

Gospelpiano...I totally agree...It doesn't get any better than those 2...However, there is a young man by the name of Corey Henry from Brooklyn, NY...We'll title him the Prince of the Hammond B3...He was playing so good one day, that the organ couldn't take anymore, and just shut down...Here is the video....kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoqqZJepqd6aj80

[@prspad]

The best there ever was on the B-3!!! A true musical legend.

[@Only1dink]

I'm so glad I've had the experience of meeting him personally............He's the greatest!

[@neusalix5209]

[@YoungmanwithOldsoul]

[@coachnsuccess]

Thanks holy roller soldier for posting this rare gem by our fallen soldier the great Billy Preston! He made the B-3 talk! Then sings my soul!

[@praisealcolic]

Reminds me of those long Sunday services, hot and sweaty and full of the spirit of the Lord.

[@paulsherman51]

Not only the service itself, but the routine and tradition and responsability, to dress up before, and gather and socialuze afterwards. Amen, brother Preston, you are what community is about

[@dorajohnson6252]

Soooooo beautiful! Can I just lay in this and praise God all day long. Yes! you are a GREAT GOD!!.OUTSTANDING BILLY!

An amazing and stupefying gift that God gave him to play the organ!!! I enjoy and am baffled at the same time!!!

[@1joker88]

Go here his version of "Summertime" after this for a real treat!

[@AngelaM_01]

love it!!

[@HedgeFundOfOne]

@7vitaman - I'm with you in celebrating "Amazing Grace". Just one little point: "Amazing Grace" had been a favorite in many churches for many generations before Judy Collins' wonderful recording. Billy Graham meetings had featured it for decades. I remember singing it often in Baptist churches, and then being happily surprised to hear Judy Collins' sweet arrangement on the radio. Newton wrote the lyric--it was set to music later with a number of different tunes--the one we sing now is great!

[@stephanhykkerud1962]

The only one Billy Preston, what a lost.

[@cnabor7]

Play it!*!!*

[@jrbryant5]

@minijcj1961, This is actually the second person I've ever seen run the bass bedals. My brother plays the organ in my church and when the spirit hits him he actuall shouts on the pedals and the music never stops.

[@63weezer]
