Every singer has their hot shit era. Some have it at the beginning of the career, others have it later. Few have it pretty much throughout their career, fewer still throughout a long career, and even less with their own distinct sounds in multiple eras. Stevie Wonder is that cat, and his early seventies clavinet soaked shit is godhead.
When I heard Wonder's "You Haven't Done Nothin'" tonight, after the clavinet-orphins subsided, I thought about how the song was somewhat appropriate what with the [Insert your favorite, most disparaging, most lethal barb here. Make sure there's a cuss word or two.] in the White House. Then I saw that it was written about Nixon, and that Nixon resigned two days after it's release. C'mon Stevie, work your magic bro!
