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.
