Jan's Blog

Computers and the internet are amazing things. One of my concerns with putting together this site was that it could remain current, yet with all my travelling I've often much to say, but little time to say it.

STEVIE WONDER

Date: 1st October 2008

STEVIE WONDER Must be brief but will fill in more when I'm back from Barcelona. Stevie spent more than an hour playing, what to me were nondescript numbers, before he got to the ones which made him famous and it wasn't until the end that we were treated to Superstition and the like.  I was rather...
