During Carl’s interview with Stevie Wonder at a recording studio in New York City in 1986, the living legend was still savoring the success (finally!) of making Martin Luther King’s birthday a national holiday.  He also talks about the convenience of having a home studio, what he listens to for inspiration (hip-hop, early 20th Century experimental music and his deepest love, old jazz).  Key of Life? He says, “I believe there is nothing I can’t do if I set my mind to it.”
