## What 3 lists say

### No. 4 in [Funk](https://waxonia.com/genre/funk/)

A clavinet riff so complete it barely needs the rest of the arrangement. Wonder played almost everything on it himself, which is the point: funk here becomes composition rather than a band's collective accident.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-the-hundred/)

A clavinet riff so complete the arrangement is almost optional. One man playing nearly everything, at the exact moment that became possible.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — Where the Accent Moved](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-the-accent-moved/)

One man playing nearly everything, at a moment when funk was supposed to be a band sport. The studio turned out not to be the enemy of the group after all.
