Bill Withers' three primary recordings have been remastered and re-released by Columbia Records in the last couple of years: Just As I Am, Still Bill & Live at Carnegie Hall. The majority of the tracks on any "Best of" come from "Just As I Am" and "Still Bill." The music on these recordings are soulful, spiritual and funky. If you love Bill's vocals and songwriting then do not deny yourself these albums.
And if you would like to know more about the blue collar, enigmatic Bill Withers then I would recommend back-ordering or searching out issue #16 of Waxpoetics. The interview with Bill focuses on his work with Booker T. as well as his outlook on music and life. Waxpoetics is also one of the best zines I've ever read when it comes to "rap, hip-hop, funk & soul". The look and feel of the zine is beautiful and the writing is respectable:
