'Bout Love ... LP Columbia, 1978. Near Mint- ... $16.99
One of Wither's most underrated sets, a nice effort from the latter part of his Columbia career.

Menagerie ... LP Columbia, 1977. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of Bill Withers' greatest albums of the 70s – a set that has hip stepping off the acoustic sound of his Sussex records, into a warm and jazzy style that we like every bit as much as his earlier work!

Watching You Watching Me ... LP Columbia, 1985. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A sweet little 80s session from Bill Withers – a lot less acoustic than his soul of the 70s, but in a way that works surprisingly well!

Looking For Mr Goodbar ... LP Columbia, 1977. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Not a bad little soundtrack – filled with sleazy 70s soul tunes! Given that the movie features Diane Keaton trawling her way through the singles underground of the time, the music goes pretty darn well with the film – and in fact is almost better, as it keeps a sunny optimism, without ...
