Earth, Wind, and Fire? Nope!

bobby  “What You Won’t Do For Love” was recorded by Earth, Wind, and Fire –  right?  Wrong.  I mean, it’s definitely their style and those horns!  The whole world probably knows this (except me), but it was done by a blue-eyed white boy from Miami named Bobby Caldwell.  I attributed this tune to the wrong artist for years without checking – dumb ass!

We’ve never performed this song because I was afraid to tackle anything by Earth, Wing, and Fire.  But, really, I shouldn’t feel so bad.  The record company hid the fact that he was white when they released it to the R&B charts.   That’s sort of an excuse.  Anyway, I’ve got this great sequence to share with you and we can all do it (the midi is on the Pop/Rock list).  My apologies to Mr. Caldwell…
