Sad to hear this ..his live album in Carnegie hall is a classic...
His songs of the 70's transcend time. Who would have thought at the time as we are here today? Ditto Questlove words 2015. “He’s the last African-American Everyman,” musician. mekowilliamstv paxstereo billwithers RIP

His ‘73 post Vietnam Live At Carnegie Hall LP classic with “I Can’t Write Left-handed” is a lesson in empathetic story telling and a black conscious political masterpiece where the personal is political. Legend!
