Two Stevie's causing lightning to strike along with Jody Watley. This was recorded for an MTV special in the early 90s. Stevie Ray's rhythm comping and fills are nasty beyond belief. Stevie Ray sings the first chorus, Stevie Wonder the second, and Jody Watley the third. Best performance I've ever heard of "Superstition". Seeing video for it is a bonus and makes it even more fun.... MORE

While not the funkiest version and definitely a different venue, it definitely changed these kids lives. And it's all about the kids. Mr. Stevie Wonder!

A grand 'Funky Friday' to fellow MOG funksters. 'Maybe Your Baby' is from Stevie Wonder's 1972 Tamia 319 release entitled Talking Book. It's a lengthy, repetitious track, but lamenting despair never sounded as hypnotically funky! http://www.steviewonder.org.uk/... MORE

Stevie Wonder is live on the set of Sesame Street. Watch for the kid on the fire escape and you will know the meaning of funk.

Another amazing live performance, lost to the ages until the advent of VH1 Classics and YouTube: This one was taken from a performance on January 23,1974 on a German TV show called Musikladen. For me, the great unanswered question is who the hell is that awesome drummer?... MORE

More grind than Prince, More funk than Parliment, and almost as much sorrow as Muddy Waters.Due tohis enormous lexicon of work(some of it downright cheese laden crap) it's easy to forget how frikkn talented Little Stevie is was and will be. I spose I'm preaching to the choir so I let this slice do my talking. I dare anyone to listen to this on your headphones and not notice a little glide in your stride or a little hitch in your giddiup. Enjoy!... MORE
