Still Bill
Offstage Bill Withers, the eternal hero of karaoke baritones, exhibits the same gift for aphorism and general soulfulness that informed hit songs like “Lean on Me” and “Ain’t No Sunshine.” This makes much of the biographical documentary Still Bill pleasant and even moving. Looking out the window of a car, pondering his place in the culture, Mr. Withers says: “I think I’m kind of like pennies. You have ’em in your pocket but you don’t remember they’re there.”
Mike Hale, The New York Times
He still has the voice, the chops and the presence. But he doesn't feel a need to spend days and weeks away from home proving that.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
