The eighth episode of Shawn's Record Club show is here!   Shawn is jumping to a random album in the "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" book that Rolling Stone put together. Today he's landed on the 1972 classic Still Bill by Bill Withers (#333)  Fun Fact: The next pick is another damn anthology and it's not on apple music. I'm gonna make a playlist of all the songs and try to listen to it that way... Why does this keep happening to us!?

2 motherfucking hours of Jerry Lee Lewis!? We got fucked. I think bro married his 13 year old cousin... anyway... Rolling Stone is so dumb. How are they including these anthologies?

The 320s will live forever!!! Wasn’t a huge fan of this album for whatever reason. As far as soul records go, I connected more with the Isaac Hayes record but I did like Bill’s singing a lot as well. I agree that it sounds so effortless and smooth. 2.5/5 pieces of vinyl and my favorite track was Let Me in Your Life. Also felt the same way you did about the temptations song. It felt like it never got to the climax and then just kept going for way too long. Also also this next album is another Anthology lmao were in for another long one

Shawn vs the Random Number Generator is the feud I didn't know that I needed this year.

How the fuck does he have enough distinct music to warrant 2 hours?! And his personal life is puke central - this is going to be a rough week

Solid album, Bill did have a great voice. I think if I have one main criticism its that most of the songs just start off with a groove (a good one, granted) and then just stay in that one lane for the whole song. Which even for songs that aren't that long, starts to get a little tedious around the third or fourth minute. This is one of the things Lean on Me gets right, it has those changes to keep things dynamic and engaging.

Chalko

I really don't think compilations of any kind belong on a list like this, yeah. An "album" for the purposes of a "greatest albums" list should at the very least be something the artist had a direct hand in constructing. And almost all compilations are put together by the label.

Neil Steffens

I know the anthologies suck but I think the rationale is that the older artists had their heyday in an era in which the album was not the prevalent format to release new music. It was all singles, singles, singles so these anthologies are a way to capture those older musicians on a list like this. I do like Shawn’s comment during the Supremes episode though, in which a greatest hits album could take the place of these anthologies.

If you want the playlist, someone else made it

This album was just okay, nothing really stood out to me, aside from Lean on Me. That song has pretty much lost all meaning to me because of how often I've heard it, which is too bad, it's so great.

Reid Franklin

can't wait 'til ya get to 'just as i am', bill's first album. it's also on the list i believe. that album is just.. incredible, all the way through. lovin' this record club thing though, glad you're doin it!!
