BILLY PRESTON That's The Way God Planned It (Dark
Horse Records 2026 UK/EU limited edition 12-track LP
pressed on Purple
Vinyl. Originally released by Apple Records in
1969, That's The Way God Planned It captures Billy
Preston at a pivotal point in his career, arriving shortly after
his work with The Beatles and pairing his gospel-rooted style
with a broader rock and soul palette. Produced by George
Harrison, the album balances devotional intensity, melodic
warmth and a looser, band-driven feel, with the title track
becoming a UK chart hit. Alongside Preston's own songwriting,
the record features contributions from Keith Richards, Eric
Clapton, Ginger Baker and Doris Troy, giving it
a notably rich supporting cast. Picture sleeve with hype
sticker. Recommended).
