Still Bill


Back i stock for this reissue of the legendary soul folkie best album it's rich subtly layered music but its best attribute is that it comes on easy never sounding labored or overworked in fact it takes several spins of the album to realize just how versatile withers is on 'still bill' to hear how he makes intricate funky rhythms sound as effortless and simple as the album's bestknown song the gospeltinged inspirational anthem 'lean on me' that's the genius behind withers' music it's warm and easily accessible but it has a depth and complexity that reveals itself over numerous plays then there's the quality of the songwriting which is as assured on the grooving 'lonely town lonely street' as it is on the suspicious paranoid 'who is he and what is he to you' or 'use me' where he happily submits to being used by his object of affection
