Yeah they were. Well, my brother-in-law had a very, very good afro and that was in the late 90's, early 2000's. It was no technically "in fashion'" but everyone loved it.

I do too, despite being a youngen. There's still good music being made, but it's not broadcasted or popularized like it was in the 70s. My single favorite decade of music. So many gems from funk, to soul, to rock, & to jazz. I'd give half of my lifespan to have been a teen or 20 something during the 70s. Thankfully, we still have great funk artists like Louis Cole, Cory Wong, Vulfpeck, and Antwuan Stanley carrying the torch. I'm grateful for how technological advances have made the lives of independent artists easier and given them more room for success.

Indeed. I think the way the inner voices travel through and against the melodic moves of the octave boundaries of his right hand chords is particularly genius. For one thing, there are almost always three inner voices within that compact span, which is one or two more than most players normally fit into fast right hand passages. He also rarely sounds all the voices simultaneously, instead adding intricate syncopation and flam which makes the chords pop. Plus he builds soaring phrases, like a master stonemason building the arches of a great cathedral. But with that insane driving energy, like Bach on methedrine... I'm pretty sure someone who really knew stuff would find enough for a whole book...

The vocal is indeed absolutely straightforward. His piano, on the other hand, is incredibly detailed and subtle. The effect is casual and slaphappy and outrageously joyous, but when you listen carefully that is achieved by astonishing layers of nuance in the way he voices his right hand passing chords, and flams the individual timing of different voices, to further enrich the intricate and heavily syncopated rebounds of his rhythmical delivery, particularly during that barrelhouse solo passage. I guess it's the contrast between the vocal and the piano which heightens both facets. I wonder if that also accounts partly for why he and Harrison were such a winning combination. The contrast between their musical personas was similarly striking...

I never saw anyone smile as much as Billy Preston has all of his life in films.

Congratulations to Billy Preston on his 2021 Rock Hall nod. I truly feel one of the most underrated artist of the 20th century. From his solo career to the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton to mention but a few a genius among man.
