Most under-rated, uner-played song in the history of mankind. It's an anthem to me.

Soul, Rock, Jazz, R&B and Classical.....it has everything! I grew up listening to this, danced in a talent show doing all the latest dance steps then when the symphony hit a little ballet........YOU TAKE MY MONEY, TRY TO TAKE MY MAN BUT YOU CAN'T EVER TAKE MY MEMORIES

I'm 47- be3en a Rolling Stones fan, a Jimi Hendrix fan, -all the old rock and even the Motown from Top 40 radio- I'm just floored by this song (and Billy Preston in general) listening on here tonight is gonna make me pick back up my guitar ans start this thing all over - from where I started playing Ohio Players and Earth Wind and Fire on horn in a Soul band when I was 15

I know some fans will probably tell me I'm crazy but as much as I love "Music Is My Life" I have always liked this album a little bit more... Don't know why I just do...
