Bill Withers appreciation I don't think Prince would have gotten the phrase "put cha foot on the rock" without Bill. Classic love songs and mellow funk jams. Put them hands together for Bill yall... | |

YUP, YUP!!! 
"Lovely Day" is a wonderful song as well. I also really appreciate Out of Eden's version to that song. And "Just the Two of Us" with Grover WAshington, Jr. is classic love!! Tina (~!~) | |

How do you turn a duck into a soul singer?
Stick it in the microwave until it's Bill Withers.  Little? Yeah, right. It might be little but it's loud | |

Bill Withers is simply one of the most underappreciated artists in modern music. Period. His songs are soulful, funky, timeless. He should have been elected to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame already (assuming he's not in)!!! Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016
