Stevie (No) Wonder

[greenlands]

Stevie Wonder is playing his first gig in Tokyo and the place is

absolutely packed to the rafters.

In a bid to break the ice with his new audience he asks if anyone would like him to play a request.

A little old Japanese man jumps out of his seat in the first row

and shouts at the top of his voice "Play a Jazz chord ! Play a jazz

chord .

Amazed that this guy knows about Stevie's varied career, Stevie starts to play an E minor scale and then goes into a

difficult jazz melody for about 10 minutes. When he finishes the

whole place goes wild.

The little old man jumps up again and shouts "No, no, play a Jazz

chord, play a Jazz chord".

A bit pissed off by this, Stevie, being the professional that he

is, dives straight into a jazz improvisation with his band around

the B flat minor chord and really tears the place apart. The crowd goes wild with this impromptu show of his technical expertise.

The little old man jumps up again. "No, no. Play a Jazz chord, play

A jazz chord".

Well and truly pissed off that this little guy doesn't seem to

appreciate his playing ability Stevie says to him from the stage

"OK smart ass. You get up here and do it !"

The little old man climbs up onto the stage, takes hold of the

Mike and starts to sing . " A jazz chord to say I ruv you ."Stevi
