    <div><span style="font-size: 12pt">Stevie Wonder is playing his first gig in Hong Kong and the place is<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>absolutely packed to the rafters. In a bid to break the ice with his new<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>audience he asks if anyone would like him to play a request.

    A little old Chinese man jumps out of his seat in the first row and shouts<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>at the top of his voice &quot;Play a Jazz chord! Play a jazz chord!&quot; Amazed<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>that<font color="#000080"><span style="color: navy"> </span></font>this guy knows about the jazz influences in Stevie's varied career, the<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>blind impresario starts to play an E minor scale and then goes into a<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>difficult jazz melody for about 10 minutes.

    When he finishes the whole place goes wild. The little old man jumps up<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>again and shouts, &quot;No, no, play a Jazz chord, play a Jazz chord&quot;. A bit<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>cheesed off by this, Stevie, being the professional that he is, dives<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>straight into a jazz improvisation with his band around the B flat minor<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>chord and really tears the place apart.

    The crowd goes wild with this impromptu show of his technical expertise.
    <span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>
    The little old man jumps up again. &quot;No, no. Play a Jazz chord, play a jazz<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>chord&quot;.

    Well and truly cheesed off that this little guy doesn't seem to appreciate<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>his playing ability. Stevie says to him from the stage &quot;OK smart ass. You<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>get up here and do it!&quot;

    The little old man climbs up onto the stage, takes hold of the mike and<span class="884345613-29082007"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font></span>starts to sing.... &quot;A jazz chord, to say, I ruv you...&quot;</span></div>
