Thoughts on the Fifth Beatle

Re: Preston happy to get back to world of the Beatles

As a middle and high school student, George was my favorite Beatle. Perhaps I felt a bit underappreciated, or in a spiritual quest. Later, when I began to accept many of the political ideas en vogue in the early nineties, thinking myself very original, John became my man. Now, as I work to feed a family, Paul is at the top of my list. For all I appreciate Ringo, I doubt he could ever be my favorite Beatle.

I wonder if Billy Preston could legitimately be someone's favorite Beatle?
