John Legend & The Roots [2010] - I Can't Write Left Handed (Bill Withers Cover LIVE) [Columbia]


This week's anti-war/Ukraine solidarity tune is a Bill Withers song "I Can't Write Left Handed" covered by John Legend & The Roots from their 2010 album "Wake Up!" but done live. 

Withers only ever recorded a live version, as far as I'm aware, on his "Live At Carnegie Hall" album in 1973 (recorded Oct 1972). He died just over two years ago on 3 Apr 2020 aged 81 and a tribute was posted.

Anthony David also recorded it on his "Hello Like Before: The Songs Of Bill Withers" album in 2018. Purely coincidentally, Anthony David has a new single out with Algebra Blessett which is a cover of a BeBe & CeCe Winans song from 1998 called "Heaven" which I'll post separately.
