An early-series highlight and one many people now in their 50s fondly remember watching as children: R&B superstar Music/StevieWonder and his entourage appear on the show.

Along with Grover, Wonder explains soft and loud, long and short and basic vocal techniques ... and then comes his all-time classic performance of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7X5js1vE Superstition]]," which had just finished a run on both the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and R&B charts, reaching No. 1 on both.
