Bill Withers, who wrote and sang a string of soulful songs in the 1970s that have stood the test of time, including “ Lean On Me, ” “Lovely Day” and “Ain’t No Sunshine,” has died from heart complications, his family said in a statement to The Associated Press. He was 81.

I watched a documentary on him. He had a stuttering problem. He helped a lot of kids who stutter cope with it.

Gonna jam him all day. Starting with Use Me and going from there. Bill was a legend and a mainstay of my record player to playlist life since I was seven.

RIP.
