Review

"Still Bill" is a treasure trove of soulful grooves that'll make your heart sing and your feet move. Bill Withers, that smooth-voiced maestro, really outdid himself on this one. The album's got that perfect mix of funky rhythms and bluesy feels that'll transport you straight back to the early '70s.

Now, let's talk about those tunes. "Lean on Me" and "Use Me" are the kind of songs that stick with you, you know? They topped the charts for a reason. But don't sleep on tracks like "Who is He (And What Is He to You)" or "Kissing My Love" - they're just as soul-stirring. Withers has this way of singing that makes you feel like he's right there in the room with you, sharing his deepest thoughts.

What really sets "Still Bill" apart is how it builds on Withers' debut. The sound is tighter, more relaxed, and man, does it pack a punch. It's no wonder this album hit number one on the Soul Albums chart and went gold. Withers and his band, including those cats from the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band, created something truly special here - a classic that stands tall alongside the best R&B albums of the era. - Cole
