Track: Use Me (Album Version)

Artist: Bill Withers
“One of the best openings of any live album ever recorded. Withers and co. are so funky that the audience is clapping the entire time. The icing on the cake: after they've played the song once, Bill introduces the band and plays the song in its entirety for a second time!”
