Stevie Wonder touring in the late 1970's

Hi folks,
I was wondering if Stevie Wonder tour in the later part of the seventies after the release of his 1976 mastepiece"Songs In The Key Of Life"?We all know that the seventies was the classic period for Stevie just like the eighties was for Prince.I can't find documents which show if he toured in 1977 or 1978.I'm dying to know if anyone have any documents or have seen him in concert during that time.I can remember as a kid that Wonder was winning and sweeping all the award shows around then.I would sincerly appreciate if anyone here can help me out.Peace! biggrin

hmmm that's a good question.I honestly can't remember if Stevie was touring in the late 70s.I know he did a big tour in 1980/81 for 'Hotter Than July'.

He did tour in the late-1970s, ask NMusiqNSoul, he once gave me audio of Stevie performing in 1979.

I have that, he performs nearly everything from Journey Of The SEcret Life of Plants then goes on to do more of a greatest hits set, but I never heard of a concert where he performs mainly songs in the key material
At this point in history, we have a choice to make

These aren't from 77 or 78, but 79. I don't have any shows from 77 or 78, it looks like. He may have been taking a break or busy in the studio. I've got stuff from 75 and before, and 79 onwards, but nothing from 76 - 78, at least from what I can see.
