This permanent A+ list musician who rarely rarely sings but has had a lot of hits with people he brings in donates about 1,000 bottles of water each day to a homeless shelter and is out at the same shelter several times a week serving meals.

or maybe David Foster--lots of colabs, plays piano but rarely sings
If it said "foreign born" I would think Barry Gibb since his catalogue of hits for other artist is massive and since his brother's died he hardly sings. I can't think of anyone else.
Carlos Santana or Herb Alpert?
Enterns you should make the last blind every Friday a Kindness blind
Carlos Santana is a good guess -he rarely sings. I dont think he has had a hit in a while with his colabs though..but everything else fits
hmm...doesnt really work---he does not perform that much but he IS A SINGER..
Carlos Santana
Yup. No comments until I posted.
He's very generous and giving per a friend who once worked for him.
My impression of Carlos Santana has always been that he was a stand-up guy, so I like this guess a lot.
A quibble: why not just buy the shelter a water cooler that will be refilled every week? The thought of all those plastic bottles makes me ill.
Santana has The Milagro Foundation, which puts millions back into communities. Sure this is him.
Get over it, kid. A lot of homeless people are crazy and off their meds. A sealed bottle of water is something they might actually drink (they can also take it with them when they wander). A water-cooler isn't a good option for that population.
CARLOS SANTANA: NAILED IT
Sandy, can we spin that into a kindness blind for me & make it a Full Frontal Friday post?
carlos santana isVERY nice guy. its true
Good guy to give back if it is him.
Maybe if you ask the Enterns nicely they will change their policy on that.
Imagine 500 people lining up to use a water cooler? "K everyone Keep your dixie cups cause we are not getting any in until weds" lol...no.
Santana's album Supernatural was all duets with other current at the time musicians
Well, that would mean one of them would have to actually DO something nice once a week and not be bragging about it to all the media.
How wonderful whoever it is.
Think we can rule out Barbra Streisand.
A+++++ Sandy. I'd love a day of Kindness blinds. No Kartrashians, Housewives or Druggie Teen Moms. Nothing but kindness Blinds/Reveals.
And yes, this is Carlos Santana. I've met him and not only is he one of my FAVORITE guitar heroes, he's one the nicest people you could ever hope to meet. (As are Brian May and Joe Walsh. All 3 are BEYOND nice. I've been very lucky to have been in the right place & time a handful of times).
Well I consider myself an environmentalist, but the reality is the majority of those bottles are probably being given out to people with immediate need who are then carrying them out into the streets. As practical as it may be, a reusable water bottle isn't necessarily high on a homeless person's must have list.
I love the Carlos Santana guess (and him), but I've decided to lose my mind and guess Pitbull! He does a ton of charitable work down in south Florida. I heard an interview with him on Sirius once that completely changed my opinion of him.
I was in the right place at the right time as well and have met Brian May. He is a very nice man.
Late 80s/early 90s I worked a couple of summers at an amphitheater & that's where I met Carlos Santana & Joe Walsh. THAT was a fun job, getting paid to watch concerts all summer. Brian May was just a lucky one, met him on the street. We came out of the train station, walked up the street & there he was. Crazy, huh?
