But I'm giving this one to Billy Preston on the basis of "Spacerace" alone:

 

SO funky!

 

Who is the silly person who voted for George?! (Harrison) Was that you, Innerlight?

Speak up!  How can it be any Beatle besides Paul?

Paul for the second one.

As for the best Beatle keyboardist, I picked Paul.
It's still fun to watch John in this though. a-hard-days-night-john-1

I'm going to say Paul (and I think that's what most people think) although I really love many of lennon's piano (or other keyboard instrument) lines
