In this episode we discuss Stevie Wonder's incredible 4-album run in the early/mid 1970s, establishing him as among the greatest songwriters in the history of popular music.  But it begs the question: is it better to burn out than fade away?  
It's a question that cuts across music genres and eras.  And it may shed some light on why David Bowie career retrospectives largely missed the mark. 
What do you think?

David drops the needle on the debut episode with a brief Listeners' Guide, a road map, and a few classic tracks for you to crank up from the passenger seat. Black Sabbath, Gang of Four, Rush, and Jackson Browne are just a few of the artists featured.
