I've listened a lot to this vid. Every note Billy plays is there because it need to be there. Take away or ad a note and it wouldn't work. No more no less. That is the hallmark of a true master.

I've always loved everything by Billy Preston. He was also called "The Fifth Beatle" (as were several other people). According to various sources, John Lennon had suggested that Billy should join the Beatles because of his musical contributions to the band, but supposedly Paul shot down that idea.

@hugleberthumperdink : If you look closely at the lower manual, you will find that Billy is using the A-flat preset, no drawbars. Thats the ear of a good Hammond Organist (knowing what to look for or at). Keep making good music though.

Must have been great listening to Billy playing back then. I only heard of him because I'm into Sly and the Family Stone. He apparently played on one of their albums in the 70's. I think Sly was influenced by his organ playing. I certainly am. Fantastic gospel player. What's the name of those 60's solo albums you mentioned?

@hugleberthumperdink - I dont know exactly the drawbar settings for that A(b) preset on the lower manual, but I would approximate it to be the first two white drawbars (your flutes) on a registration of 8-6 and then the very last white drawbar set to a registration of 2. That should duplicate that preset sound very close. Be careful when usuing the drawbars that your black drawbars (tibia/fibias) never overpower your white drawbars - Awful Sound for Hammond organ. Hope that helps you.

during the middle ages philosophers, according to saint augustin, said that everything is good; the evil is a loss of something, like also some pagan neoplatonic thought; so we can choose a minor good and this is evil; music "per se" is a voice of God, but "per accidens" we can use it in a bad way; we can use even the bible to kill someone if we break his head with it! we have to put love inside everything, and all will show that God creates everything for our life

@deliveredin2009 s. john wrote that who doesn't love cannot know God for God is love; to know God is not a philosophical idea but an experience; if God is someone, and not something, to know him is an experience, i cannot know you as an idea; aquinas (my favorite philosopher) said that there are a lot of names of God, but his own name is "esse" (to be, being...); but a name is a name; he was catholic and he thought that God inner nature is a mystery revealed as "trinity": true meaning of Love

In regards to the title of this song, with which I emphatically agree, I recently found out from acquaintance of mine, who is a Muslim who has been to Mecca 7 times, that Muslims don't listen to music of ANY kind. No music of any kind. Think about that for a while.

@theoriginalbadbob: Yes, read about the muslim making it to Mecca 7 times, but it was YOU telling the story, and I thought I smelled b.s. Sorry. The good muslims I know listen to music, and dance to it. We in the West have a lot to learn about Islam. The muslims I know are beautiful people, like (to get back on topic) Billy Preston was.
