Billy Preston - Encouraging Words (2026 Reissue)
Limited Gold Colour Vinyl
"Encouraging Words, Billy Prestonās fifth studio album, was released in September 1970 through Apple Records. It marked his second and final project for the Beatlesā label before signing with A&M Records. Co-produced by Preston and George Harrison, the album featured the first released versions of Harrisonās āAll Things Must Passā and āMy Sweet Lord,ā appearing two months ahead of Harrisonās own recordings on his landmark triple LP All Things Must Pass.
Prestonās take on āMy Sweet Lordā was issued as a single and reached number 90 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1971, though the album itself did not chart in the US or UK. While commercially overlooked, Encouraging Words has since been praised by some critics as one of Appleās strongest non-Beatles releases.
