Stevie Wonder

Not a ton of tunes I liked by him but I always liked this song. Man has a ton of talent though.

I always liked Stevie a lot - nearly wore out several of his albums. The Innervisions album is on a par with any of the landmark albums of the time, IMHO.

'Jesus Children of America' from that album is probably lesser known but lyrically and musically classic for the period - and still sounds pretty damned good to me...

Another great version of 'Livin for the City' - live with Ray Charles:

Went to see the Stones at the Garden in '72. Stevie was the opening act. Stones got popped at the airport in Warwick. Stevie went on and played for over 4 hours while Mick & Keith were getting bailed out of jail. The Wonder's steppin' up probably help avoid a riot.

Catch'em up,

I was working at Guitar Center on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood CA @ 1992 and met Stevie when he came in to check out some keyboard electronics. He was an extremely nice guy and it was magic when he touched the keys.
