That would be none other than Billy "Will It Go Round In Circles?" Preston. Those organ solos really wail in those sessions, too. The Beatles were always on their best behavior whenever a guest artist was in the studio with them, so having Billy Preston around was like salve on a wound for those final sessions.
And speaking of Billy Preston, when his hit "That's the Way God Planned It" was first released, I could have sworn he was singing "That's the Way, Goddamn It!" I keep meaning to submit this one to the mondegreen people,, but I keep forgetting.
