When the track reached No. 1, Stevie became the youngest solo artist to have topped the Billboard Hot 100 – though another future Motown superstar, Michael Jackson, was aged just 11 years 155 days when The Jackson Five's “I Want You Back” topped the Billboard charts in January 1970.

That year saw the first singles by The Rolling Stones, and the release of Bob Dylan’s anthemic The Times They Are A-Changin’ album, which saw him lauded as a spokesman for the protest movement. Beatlemania broke out in 1963 too – sending Liverpool band's records sales into the stratosphere and their fans into delirium. But while the Fab Four were mop-topping the UK charts, another once-in-a-lifetime artist was taking off spectacularly Stateside. Born Stevland Hardaway Judkins, he had performed as a child in the choir at the Whitestone Baptist Church in his hometown of Saginaw, Michigan, along with his mother and siblings. By the tender age of 10, the boy Wonder could sing and play piano and drums. He was snapped up by Motown Records a year later. Hearing him messing around on instruments in the studio, Motown boss Berry Gordy, Jr marvelled out loud that this boy was a wonder; the name stuck. There was no doubting Stevie’s talent, and he regularly sat in on sessions for other Motown artists, playing everything from keyboards to bongos. But his own first three singles tanked, and doubts were raised about his commercial potential. All that changed in 1963: on 10 August, aged just 13 years 189 days, he scored a US Billboard Hot 100 No.1 single (and R&B No.1) with the infectious “Fingertips – Part 2”, showcasing his snappy harmonica style.

And he still found time to visit Sesame Street…
