  • Description

    Billy's first two albums for Herb Alpert's A&M Records, both recorded in 1972. These recordings spawned two major hits: 'Outa-Space', a US No.2 and 'Will It Go Round In Circles', a US No.1. An accomplished performer and keyboard player, Preston earned himself musical immortality by playing on the Beatles' sessions from which 'Get Back' came. He died of kidney complications in 2006. Digitally remastered and slipcased, and with new notes.
