Rating: 1. Far too much funk. I have to work in the morning!

"He did "Superstition" that night, "for Johnny," and I'll never forget it."

Only the best can do that.

I was doing afternoon drive in Corpus Christi in '71 when Stevie came through for a sold out concert. I was to introduce him, was running a tad late (getting prepared, don'tcha know?!) and zipped down the coast road in my '64 "Vette with the top down, and Stevie blasting on a custom 8 track I'd made at the station.

Pulled into my spot and humped it up the back steps (no ADA in those daze) with my full length brace on the right leg. The men's room was out of order, so everyone was using the ladies. Went over to wash my hands, standing next to a very attractive lady and said, "I just can't believe we're going to see him in person!" "Big fan?" she asked. "Oh, hell yes," I told her. "I've listened to him in many frames of mind with headphones in various locations." She understood. "Do you think he'll do all the old hits tonight?", I asked. "Probably some new ones as well," she replied. and split.

Later, standing by the curtain waiting to introduce the man of the hour, that same lady came up..just appeared at my side, with Stevie. "Never got your name," she said. "Johnny..Johnny Marks," I sort of stammered out. "Johnny, this is Stevie. This is the young man I told you about from the lady's room," she told him. "It's a real pleasure to meet someone who can truly listen to my music," he said shaking my hand and giving me a big smile.

He did "Superstition" that night, "for Johnny," and I'll never forget it.
