Stevie Wonder is playing his first gig in Tokyo and the place is
absolutely packed to the rafters.

In a bid to break the ice with his new audience he asks if anyone would
like him to play a request.

A little old Japanese man jumps out of his seat in the first row and
shouts at the top of his voice "Play a Jazz chord ! Play a jazz chord!".

Amazed that this guy knows about the jazz influences in Stevies varied
career, the blind impresario starts to play an E minor scale and then
goes into a difficult jazz melody for about 10 minutes.

When he finishes the whole place goes wild. The little old man jumps up
again and shouts "No, no, play a Jazz chord, play a Jazz chord".

A bit annoyed by this, Stevie, being the professional that he is, dives
straight into a jazz improvisation with his band around the B flat minor
chord and really tears the place apart. The crowd goes wild with this
impromptu show of his technical expertise.

The little old man jumps up again.

"No, no. Play a Jazz chord, play a jazz chord".

Well and truly angry that this little guy doesnt seem to appreciate his
playing ability Stevie says to him from the stage "OK smart guy. You get
up here and do it!" The little old man climbs up onto the stage, takes
hold of the mike...
