Motown weeks....Stevie Wonder



Sem dúvida alguma, Stevie Wonder deve ser um nome a enaltecer na música moderna, e ainda mais no contexto da Motown e  da música norte-americana. A par de Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson e outros grandes nomes, este artista contriubuiu em muito para a diversificação musical.

Born in Saginaw, Michigan, Stevie Wonder moved to Detroit at an early age and has become one of that city's most famous sons.  Blind from birth, Stevie has never allowed that to be an obstacle or handicap.
Berry Gordy, the company's founder, who instantly recognized his tremendous musical potential and signed him to Motown in 1961.  He has been with the label ever since and recently signed a life-long deal.
