ando here

LOVE the RHCP cover of Higher Ground. Saw em do it live. Lifts everybody up.

Can't agree about the harmonica level on Boogie. His playing makes it. Probably my favorite Wonder track.

But I can understand about modulating it. Here's a clip of Stevie playing it at levels where in an actual ensemble its appropriate -

Spain (live in London, 2008)

I've been trying to find an upload of I Ain't Gonna Stand For It/As If You Read My Mind as it is on Hotter Than July. They're engineered as a complimentary fit and Stevie performs them live that way. YouTube uploaders rarely upload both a single clip, and for some reason, separate the the live performances too! What can you do but play the damn album?

Here he is singing bits of Ain't Gonna Stand It at Abbey Road -


This clip is also interesting when Stevie talks about wanting to go college and, in general, move on to "something else" as many people regard the album he recorded at that time (Hotter) as the end of the classic Wonder period. Others claim that Songs in The Key was the end of a string of exceptional Wonder lps. I don't think he ever stopped making great music.
