"On January 27, 1973, 'Superstition' the lead single from Stevie Wonder's Talking Book album became his second No.1 single in the US, 10 years after his first No.1 hit. Jeff Beck created the original drum beat while in the studio with Wonder. After writing the song, Wonder offered it to Beck to record, but at the insistence of Berry Gordy, Wonder himself recorded it first. Beck was instead offered 'Cause We've Ended As Lovers', which he recorded on his Blow by Blow album in 1975."

Thank you, my friend SGT (Join to see) for shariah the music video of Stevie Wonder performing "Superstition" during his 1974 European Tour live performance on The Beat Club, 1974
" On guitar just behind Wonder and to his right is MARLO HENDERSON behind and to Stevie's right, Reggie McBride on bass. Michael Sembello on guitar and T.O.N.T.O.synthesizer, and Ollie E. Brown kickin' ass and takin' names on drums. Backing Vocals I'm pretty sure should be listed as Denice Williams, Lani Groves and Tasha Thomas."
"Superstition" written by Stevie Wonder
Lyrics
Very superstitious, writings on the wall,
Very superstitious, ladders 'bout to fall,
Thirteen-months-old baby broke the lookin' glass
Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your past
When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way
Very superstitious, wash your face and hands,
Rid me of the problem, do all that you can,
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong,
You don't wanna save me, sad is my song
When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way, yeah, yeah
Very superstitious, nothin' more to say,
Very superstitious, the devil's on his way,
Thirteen-months-old baby broke the lookin' glass,
Seven years of bad luck, good things in your past
When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer, superstition ain't the way, no, no, no"

Good song, I remember it clearly on Hays street Red Light district at Fayetteville NC, in 1974/5 with the strippers.
Those 2 tassels going around, around and around on a girl named Brandy. Lol Thanks for a very, very good memory.
