Williams also recorded Hill in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, in 1971, resulting in several R&B hits, including ``Chokin' Kind'' and ``It Ain't No Use'', as well as the LP The Brand New Z. Z. Hill. With his brother's help, Hill then signed with United Artists, where he was aided by arrangements and compositions by established R&B talents including Lamont Dozier and Allen Toussaint, and released several singles that made the R&B chart in the mid 1970s. After his brother Matt's sudden death from a heart attack, Z. Z. Hill left United Artists and signed with Columbia Records, recording two albums with leading arranger-producer, Bert de Coteaux in New York.
