Guest vinylvixen Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 (edited) Does anyone know when Stevie Wonder toured the UK in late 1966? From the photo that I've seen, he appears to wearing an outfit very similar to what he wore on 'My Cherie Amour' which could also date it early 1967. The photographer can't be really specific about the precise date. I'm especially interested to find out about his performance at Bellevue, Manchester.......don't suppose any of you lot have an old Manchester Evening News review lurking somewhere otherwise I'll have to come up to Manchester Public Library to look through old back copies Jo Edited February 7, 2005 by vinylvixen Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
timthemod Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Suggest you try the national newspaper archive in Colindale, I think it's still there.

My first concert, saw quite a few Motown artists there over the next few years until they closed it down. Dave G Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

He toured with the Flirtations on that part of the tour. Some cracking B&W photos in it. It will be for sale at Prestatyn, along with loads of early Blues & Souls, 1960s/1970s fanzines, original sheet music etc.... WOOF!
