@TheSammylly Please don't even bring that subject to this video, even your attempt at a joke is unnappreciated. That thing you referred to has no right to be anywhere close to Bill Withers...
Saw Withers at Red Rocks, Denver, in 72. He opened for the 5th Dimension. Halfway through the 5th's set, people were yeling for Withers to come back. Incredible. Especially this song.

Is it weird that this is my favorite artists of all time and I'm in my 20's? Really sad that I didn't grow up during this era. Have people like Lil' Wayne as the champion of music in my generation. Disgusting.
@brandonrosas i just bought and watched "Still Bill" a fairly recent documentary about him, gets his life wisdom, some singing, his daugher wife and son, photo of his grandma -- buy it then loan it out! go through google, netflix doesn't have it.
I second that emotion on "Live At Carnegie Hall", it is the best live album I have ever heard; this guy was a genius...........and like one of the people commented on, can that concert be purchased on DVD? I would definitely buy it.
@P90X490104 im upset i was looking for that exact clip .. i want to see the feeling i get watching that because hearing it puts me up on a cloud of happiness
The corruption in the southern baptist churches has gone WAY too long unchecked. the crime of it is equal to that of the catholic boys getting molested, but because there are less direct emotions involved they get away with it. Not to mention caviats and loyalty for the pastor doing the reaping for his OWN gain.
This man speaks beyond his years/decades of living. I love his message. It will never get old or played out. LOVE this man for what he stood for naturally. Not a forced thing at all.
MAN where did you find it? i been looking forever with no luck...just a bunch of dead torrents.....any help is REALLY appreciated....incredible performance!
how long is the concert you have? is it the video?
Man...Bill Withers was obviously way ahead of his time. This is the type of stuff many of today's would-be singer-songwriter types WISH they could do. Bill would fit RIGHT in today if he was doing now what he was doing 35 years ago.
Anyone know if these live cuts be found on a CD or DVD? Some of these cuts, especially this one sound so much more raw and incredible compared to both album and live at carnegie versions. He was on fire this night!
Well I think that Bill's music is so great that it sounds best live instead of in a multi-track recording. I guess that's the true test of a great song. His songs always seem to sound better with fewer stuff going on (the absence of horns etc.. from the album version.)
He is definitely the BOSS
