Billy on the boil

G'day Rolls,

You and me are similar in many ways. We love tunes. We love chicks. We love chicks who play tunes. We love chicks who play tunes raw.

Well, Bill Withers isn't a chick, but he does dig 'em. He also likes his tunes raw, as you'll witness in this performance of 'Use Me'. It's got heart. It's got soul. It's got a dude playing drums in his pyjamas. That's raw.

The other thing that makes this a ripper of a performance is Billy's orange skivvy. You see, any normal dude clad in the same get-up would have keeled over from heat stroke half way through a song like this. But not Billy. His bionic self-cooling system lets him belt out soul-drenched classics, while shedding only a few beads of sweat. Smooth as.
