Thanks for your interesting posts.

Re: Stevie Wonder, his remasterings have been criticized for poor sonics due, in part, NOT using the original master tapes.

Perhaps we now know where those OMTs have been hiding.

Loved Stevie and Yes - saw the latter 3 times. Jon Anderson was a huge force in rock/progressive rock.

My mastering friend in LA is remastering “Close to the Edge”.

I tell you, I was floored by the fact that such an important original work was simply lying on a basement shelf in an ordinary house. I honestly couldn't believe that it wasn't locked in a secure location with the rest of Stevie's life's work.
