He was 31 when “Ain’t No Sunshine” came out.
It had no hook.
He could barely play guitar.
He was a lifelong stutterer.
From West Virginia.

The most perfect song ever made.

Then he took the money, decided it was enough, and sat down and enjoyed his family. For 30 YEARS.
*of course the man had many other incredible albums after “Ain’t No Sunshime,” full of songs that mean the world to me!

Just in awe of the sacrifice he made for his family.
