I mean, what can you say really? Two and a half hours of hit after hit after hit, each sounding perfect and all delivered with joy, humour and sometimes a dodgy cockney accent..."My Cherie Amour" has had a place in my heart from a time before memory so that's always a particular pleasure, but that late-set run of "Living For The City"->"Sir Duke"->"I Wish" was such an overwhelming rush, I feel hard-pressed to put it into words. Truly brilliant. (And it'd be remiss not to mention Ezra Collective in support- South London's premier Afrobeat jazz collective truly understood the assignment and transformed a sea of indifferent Stevie Wonder fans into a full-on dance party. The perfect warm-up act, and one of the most memorable sets of the year in their own right).
