Use Me Up


Yes, folks. Bill Withers--of Lean on Me, Use Me Up and Grandma's Hands fame--is back! A documentary about the singer, how he got started and what he's up to these days is out. It dropped last Thursday and is currently playing at IFC. Check the trailer here.

I gotta say, ol' Bill looks great for his age - and what a voice! Plus, Cornell West makes an appearance! Very looking forward to seeing this film. Favorite quote so far:

"Thoraeu I think, said 'The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.' I would like to know how it feels for my desperation to get louder."

Lean on Me sing-a-long, anyone?
