Title: Bill Withers R.i.P. Post by: Rocker on April 03, 2020, 08:46:42 AM Just heard that Bill Withers has died.
'Lean on Me,' 'Ain’t No Sunshine' singer Bill Withers dies at 81 from heart complications https://eu.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2020/04/03/bill-withers-dies-81-lean-on-me-lovely-day-singer/2939403001/ Title: Re: Bill Withers R.i.P. Post by: JK on April 03, 2020, 10:38:10 AM Very sad. I played "Just The Two Of Us" and "Lovely Day" for years with a band back in the 90s.
I remember friends of mine excitedly listening to his album Still Bill back at the end of '72. The track I always think back on from those days is the now less well-known "Use Me". As Lenny K says, "Rest in power, Bill". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTBHsuUdqoQ Title: Re: Bill Withers R.i.P. Post by: Lonely Summer on April 22, 2020, 06:30:15 PM Very sad.

I remember "Use Me", "Lean on Me", "Kissing My Love", "Grandma's Hands", of course "Sunshine" and the song with Grover Washington, Jr. I remember friends of mine excitedly listening to his album Still Bill back at the end of '72.
