Bill Withers

Welcome to Bob Barry's Unearthed Interviews. Today we're opening the vault and taking you back to a conversation with Bill Withers, one of the most honest and enduring voices in American music. During my years on the radio, I had the privilege of meeting many legendary artists, but Bill stood apart. He was warm, thoughtful, and refreshingly unpretentious, with songs that spoke straight from the heart. From "Lean On Me" and "Ain't No Sunshine" to "Use Me" and "Just the Two of Us," Bill turned life's simplest moments into timeless music. We woke Bill up, so this turned out to be a short interview.
