STEVIE WONDER: SONGS IN THE KEY OF LIFE: AN ALL-STAR GRAMMY SALUTE
February 16, 2015  | By David Bianculli

CBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

Taped last Tuesday in Los Angeles, after the Grammys but while all that musical talent was still in town, this star-studded, song-packed concert salutes the music and legacy of Stevie Wonder. Performers at the concert included Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran and Gary Clark Jr. teaming for a medley of “Fingertips,” “Master Blaster” and “Higher Ground”; Lady Gaga at the piano for “I Wish”; Annie Lennox singing “My Cherie Amour”; and Stevie himself, performing a closing set that included “Superstition.” A similar concert, and TV special, was presented last year to honor Paul McCartney – with this follow-up, it should, and does, become an exciting annual TV event.
