Great action on the keys. Cool mix with the trumpet.

Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeaming again from this one...you guys did that!!!

Great rendition, its one of my favourite tunes from Billy Preston. I met him in the eighties in Berlin, when he was on tour with Syreeta.

Billy Preston has always been an important figure in music for me, and I asked the very fine vocalist Martin Jones to join me with his soulful singing on this 70s classic.  Billy was always one of the funkiest keyboard players out there, and was often called the 5th Beatle.   Because of Billy's superb piano, synth and organ skills, he was a top session player and toured with many musicians including Eric Clapton, Ray Charles, The Beatles, Little Richard and Sam Cooke.  Here's our tribute to the late great Billy Preston, who wrote hits such as Space Race, Will it Go Round in Circles, Outa Space, That's the Way God Planned it and co-wrote You are So Beautiful, which Joe Cocker then made famous.    Thanks so much for joining me on this Martin!  Check out Martin's fine gallery at https://soundcloud.com/ver2xif
