Stevie Wonder

Stevie WonderStevland Morris (ne Judkins, May 13, 1950) is better known as Stevie Wonder is an American singer-songwriter. He is usually acknowledged as an innovator in a range of genres, including soul, rhythm and blues jazz, gospel, soul gospel and funk. Wonder's 1970s use of synthesizers as well as other electronic musical instruments led to the creation of R&B virtually a one-man-show. Wonder also contributed to the push of these genres into the album age making his albums cohesive and consistent, as well as thematically conscious and complex compositions. Blind since the day of his birth, Wonder was a child prodigy who signed on with Motown's Tamla label at the age of 11, at which point he was given the name of a professional Little Stevie Wonder. Wonder's famed critical success was at its height in the 1970s. His "classic period" began in 1972 with the release of Music of My Mind and Talking Book, the latter with "Superstition" that is one of the most distinctive and well-known examples of the sound produced by the Hohner Clavinet keyboard. The albums Innervisions (1973), Fulfillingness The First Finale (1974) and Songs in the Key of Life (1976) all earned the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. This made him an undisputed record holder for most albums of the Year wins, with three. He is also the only artist to win the award three times in succession with consecutive albums. Wonder's "commercial period" began in the 80s. The singer had his most memorable successes and most acclaim as well as increased album sales, charity involvement, as well as high-profile collaborations.
