On the subject of Bill Withers, I would like to review
SONG: Just the Two of Us
ARTIST: Grover Washington Jr. and Bill Withers
ALBUM: Winelight
Any soul/R&B fan needs this little gem in their collection. I'm sure everyone in the world has heard this song, but I would just like to bring it to the light again and recognize it as another soulful masterpiece.
Its got everything a good soul song needs. The beginning starts off smooth and kinda quiet, which builds up to the great chorus. No matter how many times I listen to this song I always have to dance when I hear the chorus, I just can't help myself. I really dig the beat and rhythm in this song and Bill Withers times his lyrics perfectly to the music. I love how Bill Withers knows exactly how loud and how soft he should sing in certain parts of the song. Also, Grover Washington Jr. is one hell of a jazz player. He throws a pretty cool jazz solo in there which just makes this song just that much better.
