## Resource

When the guy's were "pitched" about a new documentary about the life of Billy Preston, they said "Yes" without hesitation. What they didn't know were the stories inside the story, the heights and depths which this great man, and musician, reached in his far too short life. All of it is in the documentary film, Billy Preston: That's The Way God Planned It, spearheaded by Paris Barclay.
