"Stevie loved the Beatles, mostly Lennon and McCartney, for their writing" -- John Glover.
It was a two-way street. From an account of Peter Andrews:
"Stevie Wonder is here?” Lennon cried in disbelief. “I gotta see him.”
Andrews hesitated, picturing John Lennon in the crowd.
“You don’t parade a Beatle around the audience,” Andrews told the star.
“You have to understand,” Lennon explained, “Stevie Wonder is my Beatles.”
A squad of security men formed a circle and Lennon was brought through the tunnel to the side of the stage. It wasn’t long before people nearby took their eyes off Wonder and gasped in recognition. Crowds formed, too close for Andrews’s comfort.
“I told John it was getting messy, and like a trooper he obeyed,” Andrews recalls. “He thanked me . . . he was like a kid, seeing Stevie Wonder.”
