Stevie Wonder w/ The Meters

Sign in to disble this ad
I found a picture of The Meters jamming with Stevie on drums back in the 70's on George Porter Jr. website. I got to thinking how awesome it would've been to hear a Stevie Wonder album where he is backed by the Meters.

Stevie is an amazing musician, but I don't know how anyone could improve on what Zig Modeliste did for the Meters. He's a true original and one badass MF.
