Such a talented man! Bluesy, soulful, gritty, singing from the heart. Bill Withers is missed!

For a guy who used to have a bad stutter,Bill has done well!

This must’ve been a great show with Sir Bill Withers on here. Back when artists could sing as good on stage as in the studio.

Voice of an angel....

The 60s and 70s were an amazing era for music. We haven't seen anything like it since.

Bill's one of the greatest voices EVER! And he didn't even make his first album until he was 33! His story is incredible! RIP to a legend! It's amazing all the great one's Johnny had on The Tonight Show!

Bill Withers was married to beautiful Denise Nicholas an actrees. Withers flew to a town where Nicholas was working on a movie, went to the hotel, and beat the crap out of her. She filed for divorce, they had been married a year. You know one is committed to wife beating when he drove to the airport, flew in the plane, drove to her hotel room, and not at any time he thought that was a bad idea. His second marriage didn't last very long either. Nice voice piece of sh*t of a man.

Bill is so Smooth, when He talks, it's like a Song !!!!

One of the greatest voices of the 70's. Mss him a lot.

What a pleasant surprise to find a Bill Withers segment today. Amazing singer and self-made man. I'd love to see more like this in the future.

real music unlike we have today!

The second song might just be the smoothest thing i’ve ever seen

Man he was so good

Lovely Day so relaxing to listen to.

Thank you, this is absolutely incredible.

Thank God for the internet, youtube etc. We can still see legends perform.

Voice of the 70's to me. ❤

Absolutely love his music. So talented. I feel a bit old, but this is REAL MUSIC ❤😢.

I Love you Bill with all my heart

Bill Withers had no ambition to be an "entertainer." He wasn't going to dance or tell jokes, so you had to like him on his own terms. And millions of us certainly did.

Great man, great musician

William Harrison Withers, Jr. (Slab Fork, Virginia Occidental, 4 de julio de 1938-Los Ángeles, California, 30 de marzo de 2020), más conocido como Bill Withers, fue un músico y cantautor estadounidense famoso en las décadas del 70 y 80. Algunas de sus canciones más reconocidas fueron "Lean on Me", "Ain't No Sunshine", "Use Me", "Just the Two of Us", "Lovely Day" y "Grandma's Hands".

There was NO ONE quite like Bill Withers. He was the full package, voice, style, writer, and he was rather entertaining with Johnny on this clip. When Bill Withers was on the radio, we all listened, every time, to the very last note.

Always a treat to hear Bill Withers sing

Cool arrangement on the last tune. Quintessential voice.

❤❤❤ThankYOU 4Sharing!!!❤🎉 MuchLove!!!❤🎉

Wow 😮 ❤from Ireland

Nicely done.

One of the very best & a great human being as well.

I see Michael Landon on the couch as well. I would like to see that interview!

One of my all time favorite songs! So smooth!

Wow! Incredible!!!

Fantastic!

Absolutely priceless! Thank you so much.

I can only describe his voice as pure and powerful. Thanks for posting. On a side note, I could never understand why so many hosts of that era made such a big deal of promoting a guest’s album. Just hold up the cover and give the name of the album. I think they all had some meaningless moral code about hawking a product. Meanwhile, their entire salary was based on selling ads. Anyway, another great one from the JC archives.

Still Bill...one of the greatest singers.

He also did "Use Me Up".

Truly unique one talented contented man.

Makes me emotional each time I hear him❤❤❤❤.

Awsome thx

omg...Same love that made me laugh! that's the only live version I've ever heard...This is amazing. Thank you!

Back when soul music was listenable.

I Know .. I Know .. I Know .. I Know .. ☀️

Damn he is good.

I've always been a physical worker because I figure I am going to be paid if I get hurt on the job. But when I used to work out in the gym and if I got hurt I wasn't going to get paid for my injury if I got hurt working out in the gym. But I like to write music and poetry too. I now know even though I am not a young person now but, I can still perform work wise and work out in the gym like no one I know at my current age. But I have always really enjoyed writing songs and poetry. And I can and have always been able to sing and play and have played so many different musical instruments past and currently. Maybe I will consider changing my career and become a musical entertainer

Bill Withers is right up there with Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles and Stevie.

Live no lip syncing. ❤❤

i know etc what a magnificent repeat

Hard to do it better than that!

so nice

I know I know I know I know

I don't think I've ever seen a host b more indifferent towards their guest first you point out he was a skilled tradesman that made toilets not shady at all you miss label one of his greatest songs as Grandma's house and it's actually Grandma's hands which is a beautiful record. And just all around s***** introduction

I thought it was 100% respectful. They both teased each other during the interview. The commode reference was for laughs. but, things were lighter back then, the audiences of today have a dour outlook on every little thing.

DMX did the best version of this song!

Michael Jackson sung it better ngl

Oh yeah hell of voice
