Still Bill
Bill Withers came into his own on his third album. Released in 1972, the record is a remarkable summation of a number of contemporary styles: the smooth soul coming out of Philly; smoky, late-night funk via Bobby Womack, Bluesy Southern soul, and '70s singer/songwriterism. It's rich, subtly layered music, but its best attribute is it's easy flow, never sounding labored or overworked.
Best-known for the the gospel-tinged inspirational anthem "Lean on Me," this is quite simply, a beautiful moving and essential Soul LP.
- Lonely Town, Lonely Street
- Let Me In Your Life
- Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?
- Use Me
- Lean On Me
- Kissing My Love
- I Don't Know
- Another Day To Run
- I Don't Want You On My Mind
- Take It All In And Check It All Out
