Still Bill is Bill Withers' second and best album. It has no weak tracks and almost every song on it appears on either his greatest hits album or his Live at Carnegie Hall album. The production is lean and crisp, the backing band is gritty and funky, and many of Withers' finest accomplishments as a songwriter and as a vocalist are found on this record. It was Withers' best-selling album, hitting #1 on the Soul charts and #4 on the Pop charts in 1972. It has been included on both "1,000 albums to hear before you die" lists (The Guardian's and Tom Moon's) and on the 2020 edition of the album version of the Rolling Stone Garbage List.
For the playlist I added "Use Me," which I took in the This Is Their Best Song draft and which encapsulates pretty much everything that made Withers an exceptional artist. It hit #2 on the Soul and Pop charts in 1972.
The album also features "Lean on Me," Withers' only #1 hit (on both the Soul and Pop charts) and one of the few songs to have two versions hit #1 (Club Nouveau's cover accomplished this in 1987).
I'm also partial to the heavy shuffle of album opener "Lonely Town, Lonely Street".

@KarmaPolice - I decided to add Big Empty to the playlist instead of Dancing Days. Decided to go with one of the big hitters over a song that wasn’t on the original release.

went with the bold. Real nice song. Will prob listen to more later.
went with that. Not really my thing though.
not the biggest hip hop fan but I enjoyed it.I "outrank" @Nick Vermeil on this one, so I'll select:
I love the lyrics, but especially the spoke word
Good heavens, you boys!
Blue blooded murder of the English tongue
Bluh!
really liked the solo(s) but overall I can't say I'm a huge fan of the song. Also my youtube is on auto play and Do It Again came on after and I like that better, so does Mrs. PuntSteely Dan is pretty polarizing around here - some love them and some hate them. I'm obviously in the former camp and this album is the one that has always resonated with me most.
For a song selection, going with the opening track "Kid Charlemagne" with killer guitar work by the legendary Larry Carlton.

It grows on you, or at least it did on me. Really didn't care for it at first but after 2 minutes I think it picks up. Very relaxing.
I liked the drum solo outro but that's about all.
I like them or at least their big hits like 7 Nation Army and Hardest Button to Button (also love the video) but as will be a constant from me, I haven't listed to many full albums.
really like the guitar solo that starts @ 2 mins but that's pretty much all.

didn't really care for it, Criminal is better I think.

At the expense of spotlighting, I do have a Deep Purple album, so that may count as an Ian Gillan crossover.

I fell in love with Telarc classical recordings back when I was an electronics salesman in the late 1980s. We had access to some Telarc sampler disks to demo speakers, and the recording quality was phenomenal - the "Telarc Sound" was a real thing. Over the years, I've purchased many of their CDs, but this one is my all time favorite. So many great tracks (Jurassic Park, Robin Hood, The Rocketeer, Total Recall, Conan the Barbarian, The Hunt for Red October, The Terminator...), not to mention potentially speaker damaging special effects. Spotify's versions have had the dynamic range of the CD ripped out, so no caution stickers are needed like with the original - sad but true. Here is an awesome track for your listening pleasure, complete with the original sound effect track lead in - Cybergenesis + the Theme from "Terminator". (Note the tuned anvil - they needed it for Anvil of Crom from Conan, might as well get their money's worth!)

Ghost Rider

Dreamboat Annie by Heart is one that would have made my list if we had gone 100 deep, but at 70, it was one for which I just couldn't find a spot. Great album, though, their finest easily.
I am not surprised that my number 3 album got no other mentions, but The Similitude of a Dream by Neal Morse Band is that good for me. Seeing it performed live from start to finish twice helped as well. Many double concept albums suffer from padding, but that is one that is riveting and awesome for the whole ride.

381(Tie). Beauty and the Beat - The Go-Go’s (70 points)
@rockaction #1
Beauty and the Beat is the debut album from California new wave band the Go-Go's. Released July 14, 1981 on the I.R.S. Records label, the album reached number one on Billboard's Top LPs & Tape chart in March 1982, bolstered by its two big Hot 100 hit singles: "Our Lips Are Sealed" (no. 20) and "We Got the Beat" (no. 2), released in 1980, but in a different version.
Dude...This is liking ranking Bryce Young as the #1 one QB....not this year, all time.

I added the title track but since we both had it at 41 I say he should add a track as well. It's a Super Twofer!He ranked it at 41. So 30 more points.Pretty sure this is going to push JC Superstar into the top 50...

I'm sure that veterans of the 3rd Middle-Aged Dummies countdowns will be less than stunned that I had a Dio album this high. Especially Holy Diver, considering how it did there (see also below). Though Ronnie James Dio had made a name for himself as part of other bands (he said, without spotlighting) by then, it's difficult to think of 1983's "Holy Diver" as anything but a breakthrough album. At least in my heart it's a metal staple, and an album that pulled in the direction of metal and expanding my tastes once I started to collect my own music. Speaking of which, I gave the albums that I (still) have a physical copy of a small boost, and obviously this is one of them. It's probable that the last time I listened to the (entire) album was in preparation for that M-AD countdown, but at least I can honestly say that it's one that I return to every now and again.
Top 31 Rankings from my M-AD countdown for songs from this album:
#2: Rainbow in the Dark
#4: Don't Talk to Strangers
#6: Holy Diver
#15: Caught in the Middle
#24: Straight Through the Heart
And that's without giving some love to... pretty much the rest of the album. This is the classic Dio lineup, Ronnie on vocals and keyboards, Vinny Appice on drums, Jimmy Bain on bass and Vivian Campbell on guitar. Though it was before the band would add Claude Schnell to take over on keyboards and let Ronnie focus on singing.
As an aside it looks like I was able to successfully add "Rainbow in the Dark" to the playlist.

Fair. I was going to suggest dice roll or working it out somehow.
A more direct way is to say i agree with doc we do 1/album. I am not here to police it, but i won't add more than 1 myself. I suggested a playlist so people could have a small preview of tone or type of music on the album, but my comment above applies and people should listen to albums for an album draft.
