May 21, 1963:
At The Motortown Revue in Detroit, 12 year old Little Stevie Wonder recorded a song that would be his first number 1 hit...
"Fingertips Pt. 2”…
(NOTE: This was the Apollo Theater version of the Motortown Revue. The original recording was done at the Detroit show)
Exactly 14 years later on May 21, 1977:
Stevie Wonder scored his sixth #1 record on the Billboard Pop chart (#2 in UK) with a song written as a tribute to Jazz legend, Duke Ellington:
"Sir Duke”…
And, twenty years or so later, with the help of a ‘magic’ mic, Stevie brings that first #1 hit back to life on David Letterman:
Stevie Wonder, You Rock!
