Sorry..."Oh happy day" charted by the Edwin Hawkins Singers in 1969, not Billy Preston. false-apex
Love Me Do was their first successful record, Please Please Me was when the "legend" started (it reached 1 or 2, depending which chart you use). From Me To You was their first official number 1.
No. In fact, in 1991, Preston was arrested in Los Angeles after physically attacking a teenage transvestite prostitute after he discovered the prostitute's real age and sex. As a matter of fact, Keith Richards outed Billy Preston in his recent autobiography, "Life." However, he wasn't the first. Billy Preston confided to his manager that he was gay, according to an article in Wikipedia. There is a cite, but I prefer to rely on Keith Richards' book, having just purchased and read it.
Billy Joel recorded the song "Just the Way You Are" in 1977 on his album, The Stranger. It was his first US Top 10 and UK Top 20 single which reached number 3 in the US and it was also his first gold single.
The song is "Billy Joe McGuffrey" by Chris Rice
