MINI-LP PAPERSLEEVE GATEFOLD REPLICAS

Elemental Music, together with Sony Music Entertainment, is proud to present a new reissue of +’Justments, the third studio album by the legendary Grammy-winning singer/songwriter BILL WITHERS. Best known for his classic 1970s hits “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Grandma’s Hands,” “Lean On Me,” and “Use Me,” Withers combined folk, soul and funky R&B on this string of understated and enduring recordings. His songs have been covered by numerous artists and sampled by a multitude of hip-hop groups. A former Navy mechanic, Withers’ career got off to a winning start when he signed with Sussex Records and issued the albums Just As I Am (1971) and Still Bill (1972), which yielded his biggest hits. +’Justments (1974) furthered his successful career, capturing the essence of his unique style: a remarkably sophisticated yet effortless blending of smoky late-night funk and bluesy Southern soul backed by richly layered arrangements and quality song writing.

Recorded in 1974 at The Record Plant, L.A. Dijobe Sound, Orange, Calif. Wither’s Home.
