How do you turn a duck into a soul singer? Put it in the microwave until its bill withers

Great voice, great career

Wrote 2 of the greatest songs in the popular music catalogue, as well as a number of other very fine ones. His early recordings are exemplary and unique.
Another artist from the golden era passes.
