Stevie Wonder

[Bluearsedfly]

Ooooh Stevie Wonder at Glasto? That'd be good. Can't say I know too much of his stuff, but what I know I like. I'd watch him. He'd be an ace headliner.

Oh, and to add to the poor taste:

Apparently Stevie Wonder got a cheese grater for his birthday. He said it was the most violent book he'd ever read.

[Langdale Wolf]

I hope you've been banned from XBOX live with jokes like that.

[Pinhead]

You heard it here first!!

[The Nal]

Cool - I think I will. Any albums in particular? A mate has his greatest hits album so I'll give that a whirl.

[tijuana_man]

Songs in the key of Life and Innervisions. But start with the double "definitive version" greatest hits.

I like the idea of this a lot, better than a bunch of alpha males, all testosterone and guitars. Bit of f**kign quality. Nice one

Put me on the 'Yes Please' list.

[sifi]

plus talking book, and after those three fulfillingness' first finale

[Ed209]

I'd put fulfillingness' first finale at the top. I love Boogie on Reggae Woman and Please Don't Go, in my opinion, is one of those songs you never hear anywhere, but quite clearly should. So there.

But any of those four, you won't go that far wrong.

[sifi]

It goes:

Songs in the Key of Life

Innervisions

Fulfillingness' first finale

Talking book

FACT!

discussion over

[Ed209]

Discussion not over.

It doesn't go like that. Chronologically it definately doesn't go like that. But I don't know how you are sorting them. You favourite, ascending? Your favourite, descending? The price you paid for them, ascending, sub-sorted by the year you bought them?

It all seems a bit arbitrary to me. You are confusing your opinion with fact again

[sifi]

Best in descending order. I thought that would be obvious

[ampersand]

Best what? Best guitar work on them?

You can't think innvervisions is better than FFF and Talking Book, surely? Why? And how?

Talking about the FFF Book (see what I did there?)

FFF

We shouldn't accept this, comrades.

[sifi]

Has Stevie written us a song Sifi?

[sifi]

Plus Too High, Golden Lady, livin for the city, higher ground, Jesus Children, Don't you worry about a thing ... all just genius. FFF comes close but i don't possibly see how you think talking book is better than Innervisions, its still fricking great but a just a little wet for my liking

[ampersand]

This is an interesting point. Weren't the four meant to be about different aspects of his life? I think Talking Book was about love, FFF about God, Innervisions about Politcos and Key of Life about his family?

Or did I make that up?

And I've forgotten Music of My Mind too. Idiocy.

[future_shock]

Stevie would be a good edition to the line up but not as a headliner. I wouldn't go see him as I've never liked his stuff but lots do so would be a good afternoon crowd pleaser.

I think he may have managed to fill out 90 minutes or so and even throw ina doxzen or so famous well recognized songs.

[.jay.]

If you are referring to the 2004 James Brown set, he was rubbish. I think he managed about 6 minutes. There was a stupidly long intro (bearing in mind its a festival) then he came on and sang about 2 lines from each song before handing the microphone off to his backing band. Now admittedly he was really old and not well so I'm not holding it against him but he was terrible. His band who did about 95% of the performance were really good and it was a great show but I wanted to hear James Brown not them.

[future_shock]

i wasn't

[denwyn]

I feel a bit on my own here...is there anyone who does not like him. I have never seen anything in him at all. Not for me
