If he never releases another new song he's definitely made his mark. I was quite disappointed when I got my "very best of bill withers " cd and nether When I'm Kissing
My Love or Use Me were on it. I lost all my vinyl issues of his work many years ago....

... and if you don't have a copy, by all means the Carnegie Hall Live - opens with 'Use Me' and rocks big time -

I never bothered to get that one, as I was never big on live albums, but i've read such good things about it that perhaps it's time.

I already have half of them already, so I will find a way to get the ones I still need individually.

Yes I have this cd too, and it is probably the best single disc compliation of his career.

Bill Withers is one of the most down-to-earth entertainers imaginable & totally unaffected by that whole star trip.

It's good to see him embrace & accept the attention that he deserves. A really nice guy who deserves the respect that he's receiving.
