    RIP Bill.

    Lean on Me remains one of my all time favourite tunes.

    Watched a great BBC4 documentary on his career a few years back.
    Hopefully they will air it again soon.

    RIP, Bill !
    this news took a while to get to me: sad day !

    just seeing now how many other musicians I love he inspired.

    one of my favs from +'Justments (1974)

    How do you turn a duck into a soul singer? Put it in the microwave until it's bill withers.


    RIP Bill.
