“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…
