I'm sitting here watching the Rays lose and listening to AT40 from 7/31/73 and "Will it Go Round in Circles" by Billy Preston is on. Kind of an odd question, but does he have the largest amount of hair for one person in music history?! If not, who does?

Crystal Gayle had quite the long mane for a while.

Billy was to pop music what Oscar Gamble was to baseball in the same era. Which one had the most extensive afro is a toss-up.

A member of the '69 Cubs and the '77 South Side Hit Men. Had a "fro" like his during my college years. Wish I could have some of it back! Sly Stone had a pretty good one: www.bing.com/images/search?q=sly+stone's+afro&qpvt=sly+stone%27s+afro&FORM=IGRE

Glad the Rays lost, my Sox did too. After Mondays abortion, we need to keep pace!

At least it looked like Oscar singing it on TV. With some lady.

I remember seeing he and Syreeta performing "...Born Again" on TV ("Midnight Special"?) and being shocked at how different he looked without all that hair. At least he didn't have the impossible task of trying to keep a ball cap on his head while chasing fly balls!

I don't condone stadium violence but had those Yankee fans agitating White Sox fans been beaten to a pulp I'd have gone to bed happy.

For most hair, Billy creams Crystal, once you factor in the pubes.

Sorry, not discussing male pubic hair.
The Bucs are blacked out Thursday. Anyone else with an NFL team experiencing this for preseason games also?

Does it have to do with him drinking a lot of egg creams back in the day? He doesn't look like he would have been a three sewer guy so I don't think it could have been that.

Does anybody remember the Jackson 5 circa their variety show? They all had some huge 'fros at the time.
