RIP Bill Withers
« on: April 03, 2020, 09:42:29 AM »
Bill Withers has passed away.
Not Covid 19 related from what I understand.

What a great musician he was!
When he got fed up with the music bizz, he just quit.
Now you have to very cool to make such a decision.

Rest in Peace Bill Withers

There's an awesome documentary out there, Still Bill, that does a fantastic job. Bill was great.

rip...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Same with me, when I first heard it, the somber mood floored me. Ruhe in Frieden.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
