bongos, harmonica, drums
and piano. His destiny was
set! At the age of nine,
Steveland was introduced by
Ronnie White of the
Miracles to Brian Holland
(Holland Dozier and
Holland).

His first record “Lonely
Boy” was released at 10 and
at 12 his first hit single
“Fingertips” would precede
his first album, “Twelve year
old Genius”. From that day,

Stevie—_would_grow__up in
Motown’s recording studios
in Detroit. Known as the boy
Wonder, one night Clarence

evie

(Stevie’s longtime
conductor) was

Paul

music
dubbing Stevie's voice track,
and along with two other
producers decided Steveland
would be known from then

on as “Little Stevie Won-
der”.
Since then, Stevie has

given the world soft and
sentiment ballads like “Ma
Cherie Amour”, “For Once
in My Life”, “Sunshine of
My Life”, “Yester Me,

-Yester You, Yesterday” and

“Isn't She Lovely”. But he’s
also given us rockin’ in-
fectious rhythm with

“Superstition”, “Higher
Ground”, “Boogie on
Reggae Woman" and
“Livin'for the City”!

Wonder’s new album
“Hotter then July” has
combined Jamaican rhythm
“Master Blaster Jammin”
(his fewest single) with R&B
Classics like “Lately” and
sure fire hits like “Rocket
Love”.
