we're not talking about race at all, why are you bringing that in? I assume you're black? Why are blacks like you still complaining? You got half the white house, your race is all over the commercials since Obama. It's as if since slavery was abolished, you guys always think you deserve something. Just shut up and enjoy the music, troll.

@64delftlover C'mon man...you know how it is. Anyone with clear eyes knows how it works. Blacks in entertainment are always shortchanged and pigeonholed. We create rock and roll, but Elvis is the King? Don't make me laugh. Eminem is considered the best rapper ever...haha. At least Marshall knows the score...he said in "White America", "let's do the math...if I was black, I would've sold half". Just how it goes man. You have to be damn near a demigod to be seen on the level of inferior whites.

What I have learned on this page is that MrBabolat92 is an idiot. Ignoring race and consumption to defend a myopic point that The Beatles were superior to Billy Preston is mind numbing and simple. Here's my 'fact' to you MrBabolat92: if the Beatles were black, they would be a footnote in music history because they would not have been 1/2 as big as they were. That's how the game works. And only a moron would try to refute that. Talent is NEVER the only indicator of 'greatness' in entertainment.

@64delftlover Yes. Billy Preston was an excellent pianist. He made a great contribution in Don't Let Me Down and Get Back. But did all of his albums hit number one? Was he bigger than Jesus? Was he any different from the other mass amounts of black pianists? No, not really. But is his talent better than any of the Beatles? Absolutely. Fucking. Not.

@64delftlover even heard Here Comes the Sun? It's a very tiring song to do on guitar. His influence from Indian culture made him a master in introducing the sitar to basically the world, especially like Norwegian Wood. John? His voice. Fucking epic and can never be replicated (try to scream like he did in Don't Let Me Down). Great rhythm guitarist, too. The only reason BIlly Preston was hired by George is to somewhat ease the internal tensions in the band BECAUSE THEY WERE SO GODDAMN GOOD.

@64delftlover Billy was more talented than any of the Beatles? You sir, are a complete fucking idiot. NOBODY. NOBODY. BEATS THE BEATLES. Do you know any other bands in history that released 13 number 1 albums in 7 years? Now, individually. Paul is one of the greatest bassists in history due to the constant strumming that was needed in his songs, Ringo's drumming is immensely underrated, as quoted by Phil Collins, his fill-ins were ridiculous. George's solos were never upsetting, have you ever
Billy preston can play the fuck out of those keys! :D
