70s Retro #music with Billy Preston
How was your weekend, kittens and dawgs? No complaints here. It’s a new week and the mewsic is movin’ me. Saturday Songsuasion featured artist, Valerie Ghent, reminded me of a musician from the 70s I had all, but forgotten. In Valerie’s bio, she mentions that she shared the stage with the dude I’m spotlighting today. It’s time to get your funk on with these retro picks by Billy Preston! *applauds*
Do you remember Billy Preston? I bet you do! What mewsic has you movin’? I’m dying to hear! Enrich my senses, share a song title or YouTube vid. Make me boogie woogie like a wild cat or mello-o-o-w me out with a slow sway. What ever you have, bring it on, baby cakes! 😉

Billy Preston was often referred to as the Fifth Beatle, for his work on the “Let It Be” sessions.
I only recall a couple of his songs, and you have them displayed here.

Mary, I love good music vibs from the past! Last night DH & I sampled some listening to old classics on iTunes. It’s amazing the talent that once was and to think of how today’s musicians can’t match a tenth of retro artists. Thanks for dancing with me today. Now to boogie woogie over to your place!

I remember Billy Preston because I liked him a lot. He’s a talented musician who worked with The Beatles before they broke up.
Love,

Janie, that’s an interesting bit of music trivia you shared about Billy. I had no clue!
