No yellow jumpsuits or katanas in sight: Still Bill came way earlier than Kill Bill, in 1972, when the name "Bill" in pop culture by and large referred to Withers and little else. In the early 70s, Withers only needed watering: at odds with the factory machinery he'd previously been thought destined for, and now weary of the label pressures piled on by Sussex Records , who wanted polish, Withers had had enough and resisted, preferring the lean band sound he'd built with guitarist Benorce Blackmon and drummer James Gadson. 'Lean On Me' was cut almost as an afterthought, Withers tapping the piano figure himself, yet it became a number one and a civic anthem. 'Use Me', meanwhile, stirred radio controversy for its unapologetically submissive sexual politics, some stations balking at its candour while others let it ride straight into the Top Ten. 'Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?' carried a darker tension, later finding new life in Jackie Brown.
