At long last the wait is over to play this incredible music in CD format. The wait has been painful but music lovers everywhere won on February 16, 2010. Bill Withers made many great recordings but +'Justments is the "Masterpiece" long overdue. I hope it spurs the release of his entire catalog on CD in the near future. Thanks to whomever is responsible for restoring a gem. May it never go out of print.

I would like to state first that it is a travesty that more than half Bill Withers' catalogue is still out of print. Bill Withers was a contemporary of Al Green and is just as good in my opinion; and yet all of Al Green's albums are still in print, or at least easy to obtain, but Bill Withers' albums are not. I hope this changes.
I am ecstatic that this album has been released and it is indeed a masterpiece and I feel it is easily as good as his first two albums. "You," "The Same Love That Made Me Laugh," "Green Grass," "Ruby Lee," "Heartbreak Road" are all utterly amazing and could easily have been played on the radio. The liner notes give an excellent background on the tracks featuring information provided By Bill for this release. I really hope this release sparks an interest in Bill Withers albums because there are some other ones that I wish they would release.

One of Mr. Wither's classics that should've been released a long time ago along with his first two titles. Glad some label had the presence of mind to release this one on disc. Way to go! Looking forward to enjoying this piece real soon.
