Soulful Masterpiece
Was happily surprised to hear so many great songs, many of which I recognized but never realized had been sung by Bill Withers. Bought this for "Ain't No Sunshine" (which we loved in "Notting Hill").

Still not sure why Withers isn't known like Marvin Gaye or Issac Hayes.

Looks like you can still buy this copy:
Greatest Hits.


it sucks
it [. . . . . . ] unless you enjoy really bad cross-over smooth jazz/easy listening crap. Bill has a great voice and i had only heard ain't no sunshine and use me up. what a damn dissapointment! i expected far different styling.


Bill Withers...Greatest Hits
It would be a welcome addition to anyone's library. A very well balanced collection of his more popular songs. But he does have other songs out there. . . If you've never heard anything but "Lean On Me," try this collection and maybe it will whet your appetite for more of this gifted artist's material.


CLASSIC, CLASSIC, CLASSIC!
If you don't know Bill Withers. . shame on you! This is simplicity, heartfelt and smooth. . . . Thank goodness the Gap has exposed an entirely new generation to this artist. But for those of us who remember these tunes as current hits, this is part of the Boomer soundtrack. Yes, there are more tunes on "Lean on Me," but if you're new to Bill Withers, you won't regret this purchase.


remarkable soul singer
This kind of music can be called "SOUL FUSION MUSIC" in a sense. This outstanding soul singer can compose and can sing in a fusion sound setting like crusaders,grover washington JR brilliantly. You can hear the mellowness and richness of R&B MUSIC to your heart's content. The combination of subtle vocal expression and tight backing arrangement is superb. This is definitely a masterpiece of SOUL FUSION ALBUM.
