We have the demo on Acetate of Bobby performing the song originally, but the Acetate we obtained, most likely from YouTube, has much surface wear.  So I asked Peter Calo to perform an instrumental (here it on this blog) which I then fused with the Acetate.  That appears on the original (unreleased) boxed set, but I still seek a cleaner version.

Bobby did perform the song on his Epic album (now download) Love Games.  There are also versions by Powerpack (featuring a pre- Procol Harum drummer Bobby Harrison,  lead guitarist-vocalist Terry Newman and allegedly members of Freedom.) and a version byTamiko Jones.

Ebay poster notes: assigned from
Hebb's publisher Notable Music Inc., to the UK Licensee Campbell Connelly & Co. Ltd. in Denmark Street (Tin Pan Alley) London.  
This demo came from the UK publisher.    This is an uptempo version which has that "Elusive Butterfly" feel.

Thanks Sid for I'll Be Anything For You/Lost Summer by The Powerpack.
I had a copy of this record around 1970.I 'borrowed' it from my friend Colin Short.His older brother Terry played drums with The Powerpack about this time,but i dont know if he is playing on these tracks.I remember seeing them play at the Bridge House in Canning Town.Incidentally,Colin borrowed the record back some years later and i have have never heard the tracks since.

This is Bobby Harrison, the original drummer for Procol Harum, performing Bobby Hebb's "I'll Be Anything For You". Wonderful stuff. See information on BobbyHebb dot blogspot dot com

My father is the guitarist on this record. He and the bassist wrote the music. PM me for more information. I would also like the file for this.

The Powerpack was a popular club band in the late 1960's- early '70's. The only member who's name I know is that of lead guitarist-vocalist Terry Newman. Sorry that's the best I can do. Peace!
