bachsteady Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Great video of Billy and the stones in the 70"s. Sounds like a clav but not sure on the bottom. Also don"t know the keyboard on top and then on the right is another keyboard on top of some amp I think? Thanks for any help https://youtu.be/FFMHMf592Qg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill bosco Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Preston also played a chopped hammond touring with the Stones , was finished in white . i remember it being very compact looking , maybe the generator was on the floor ? . it inspired a chop i did in the '80s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help https://youtu.be/FFMHMf592Qg Wow - as a Stones fan, I had no idea they every toured with Billy nor gave him a spotlight like that. That's really, really cool. (I'm sure I was too young to have seen them then, I didn't see them live until the Steel Wheels tour, and none of the videos, DVDs, etc. I've seen nor recordings I heard until now had Billy with them live as far as I can remember.)

Outkaster Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I think the chop is there about half way through you can see it. Billy was a monster player.. Quote "Danny, ci manchi a tutti.

bennyray Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Billy Preston was very talented and if you could play with the Beatles and the Stones you are a master player. MIC DROP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
