Search - Various Artists :: In Search Of Cool

Beatles' 5th member early works!!! Although probably best known through this fact, a smashing number like 'Billy's Bag' is chance to showcase Mr. Preston as a talented man in his own right. In the early 60's Preston had already made a name for himself as a very fine Piano and Hammond organ player of soul/jazz/R&B, recording with such artists as Sam Cooke or Little Richard. Preston's VeeJay solo recordings (all of them available here) made it to the Go-Go Clubs and Mod Joints all over the world as absolute 'Winners', such as 'The Birds & The Bees', 'Shotgun', 'The Octopus' and the self written biggie 'Billy's Bag'. 25 tracks. Digipak. Vampi Soul. 2003.
