We saw this one live! That is, we saw Stevie Wonder at Madison Square Garden and he brought Tony Bennett out as a surprise guest to do the song with him. It was an electric moment, the highlight of the concert.
That;s one thing about living in New York, you never know who will turn up at concerts as guests: the latest was Springsteen but we've also seen Phoebe Snow and Prince (not together).

You New Yorkers-do you know how lucky you are. We will be there in May!
Too cool. Thanks. A song like that heard live in New York is like hearing it nowhere else in the world.
We'll be home except for a few days at Jazzfest (5-9).

Think about it - the man is 85 years old! Just amazing.

Elmore Leonard is 86. It gives us hope.
