Whitney Houston - Bill Withers

I don't know anything about Whitney but there can't be many better femal vocalist than her. I remeber her Star Spangled Banner never heard it better
The girl can sing I just don't listen her much

I bought a Bill Withers greatest CD after reading an article about some reissues coming out. WOW I forgot what a great songwriter and singer he is
sure some of the tunes have been worn out but doesn't diminish his talent.
Good stuff for certian times.

I'm with ya Mann! Love Withers. There's a fairly newer song(couple years old now ,I guess )that Whitney sings called "I learned from the best". Great lyrics and great song. (mind you, I don't listen to a whole lot of this kind of thang)

Love Bill Withers. Very soulful. Whitney Houston is such a train wreck I can't get past that to even try and enjoy her music.

Still Bill is a great album. I don't care for crackhead Whitney.
