This review is from: Lovely Day (Audio CD)

Bill Withers has penned some memorable music to be sure, and it's all here on "Lovely Day." Unfortunately they didn't stop there. They rounded the album out with lesser-known songs, and it turns out, they're lesser known for a reason. I found myself skipping many of the slower tracks out of boredom. Sometimes less is more. I love Bill's "Live at Carnegie Hall." It has all the hits, with the exception of "Just The Two Of Us," but without all the mundane filler. "Live..." is all the Bill Withers you need. Skip this collection of "hits" and go for the live album instead. You'll be glad you did.
