As steadfast as the smooth grooves and eloquent lyrics Bill Withers ceased sharing with the world nearly a quarter-century ago, seductively low-key docu "Still Bill" finds the full-time family man and natural musician, at 70, little changed. Fans curious to see how time has treated the smooth voice that made "Ain't No Sunshine," "Lean on Me," "Use Me" and "Just the Two of Us" distinctive hits back in the day will buoy the item to strong tube sales and mellifluous DVD life.

Bill Withers' songs run through our memories: "Ain't No Sunshine," “Lean on Me”,"UseMe,” "Grandma's Hands.” Learning there was a new documentary about him, I wondered how long ago he died. The answer is, he still lives and survives as a happy man. “Still Bill" is about a man who topped the charts, walked away from it all in 1985and is pleased that he did.
