“Never Had A Dream Come True” #26 3/7/1970

Stevie Wonder was in a bit of a career trough at this point. Even after successes like “My Cherie Amour” and “For Once In My Life,” he was struggling to get away from the public’s perception as Little Stevie Wonder. He desired a little more artistic freedom than Motown necessarily wanted to give him. He also wanted a little better royalty deal, and eventually got it. Amazing how those can be connected.
