Talk:A Black Man's Soul

Billy Preston
There's not much evidence at all to say Billy Preston even played on the album, let alone played it's most iconic song almost by himself (Gettin Nasty). It's a bit of an urban myth - he played some keyboard on the album as a session player, but I've seen nothing at all to suggest he did anything more.

Truth is, Ike Turner was a more famous pianist than Preston at that time. Billy was making a living as a session player back then, playing organ for the Beatles and The Stones. I seriously doubt Ike's (probably the most respected blues/r+b pianist of the decade) giving a major piano lead to a session organ player

Preston wasn't playing piano lead on any albums until the mid 1970s. At this time, he was a mere session player. And not even a pianist. Playing the organ

You know, it's a big claim - you need evidence
