Prince & Stevie Wonder Quote from The Times (UK)

So I'm reading 'The Times' while waiting for a colleague to get some petrol at Sainsburys when I notice a little review on Stevie Wonder's new album.

"But putting the romantic ballads firmly in their place is Wonder's historic get-together with Prince on the single, So What the Fuss, an awesome funk workout with a crunching synth-bass line, swift, streetwise lyric and a neat line in sampled car horns" cool

Off to try to google a sample up.....

Ten years after previous album, Wonder never ceases

A NEW Stevie Wonder album is always an event, not least because they so rarely come along. Executive changes at Motown are vaguely cited as one reason for the delay this time, and the death of his former wife, Syreeta Wright, from cancer last year could not have helped the progress of this self-produced album. But in truth Wonder doesn't have an excuse other than his neurotic drive to achieve perfection.

running out of time must go on my stag do, there is a bit I have missed about Doug E. Fresh!!!!!
