Thought this might make you groan.
Stevie Wonder is playing his 1st gig in China and the place is packed
to the rafters.
In a bid to break the ice he asks if anyone has a request.
One young chap jumps out of his seat in the 1st row and shouts at the
top of his voice "Play a jazz chord! Play a jazz chord!"
Amazed that this guy knows about the jazz influences in Stevie's
career, the blind impresario starts to play an E minor scale and then
goes into a difficult jazz melody for about 10 minutes.
When he finishes the whole place goes wild.
The chap jumps out of his seat again and shouts "No, no, play a jazz
chord, play a jazz chord."
A bit cheesed off by this, Stevie, being the professional that he is,
dives straight in to a jazz improvisation with his band around the B
flat minor chord and really tears the place apart.
The crowd goes ballistic with this impromptu show of his musical
expertise.
But, still the young Chinese man jumps up again and shouts "No, no.
Play a jazz chord, play a jazz chordÂ…"
Stevie is really annoyed now that this chap doesn't seem to appreciate
his playing ability and shouts to him from the stage " OK - smart arse,
you get up here and do it."
The young bloke climbs onto the stage, takes hold of the microphone and
starts to sing............
"A jazz chord to say, I ruv you... "
