Comment:

"Lean on Me" is the once-in-a-lifetime kind of tune that most songwriters dream of crafting, if they're lucky. Covered by Club Nouveau, Al Green, Tom Jones, Ike & Tina Turner, Anne Murray, and scads of others, Bill's original (from [i]Still Bill[/i]) is still the gold standard. Its middle a cappella couplet, sung over bass and percussion, still produces goose bumps some three decades later. And his rough-edged baritone cuts to the emotional heart of "Use Me," one of the most potent love juju songs ever committed to vinyl.
