A LOVELY DAY WITH BILL WITHERS
- 6 years ago
Okayplayer's status as co-presenter on Carnegie Hall's Tribute to the Music of Bill Withers afforded OKP TV the singular opportunity to hang out at rehearsals and chop it with the likes of Anthony Hamilton, Valerie Simpson, Aloe Blacc, Ledisi, Gregory Porter, Keb' Mo', Michael McDonald, Steve Jordan, Willie Weeks, Greg Phillinganes, NOLA legend Dr. John--not to mention the ever-charming Mr. Withers himself. Incredible talent and love for songcraft made this "a lovely day" for the history books--or an OKP TV mini-documentary.
This behind the scenes look at rehearsals was in advance of the amazing performances at Michael Dorf Presents Lean On Him, a Bill Withers Tribute at Carnegie Hall, co-produced by Greg Phillinganes, Marcia Withers, Leo Sacks & Shlomo Lipetz.
