Seems that back in 1996 Stevie Wonder, supported by Seal, appeared in the South-East Asian country of Brunei to play at events to celebrate the 15th Birthday of the ruler's son!!
I've found this clip of him singing "Ribbon In The Sky" at one of the events and he sounds great.
Perhaps even more importantly for us collectors and completists it seems that a three CD box set of this was issued in Brunei ... here are details of it at Discogs ...
https://www.discogs.com/release/26984165-Stevie-Wonder-Seal-The-15th-Birthday-Celebration-For-Prince-BaharDiscogs has yet to have had a copy of this release sold through its marketplace but someone is trying to sell the box set at £4,000.

It brings to mind what Mr Gordy is reputed to have asked the youth of Detroit about new releases .... "If you had $5000 to spare would you buy this Stevie Wonder release or an all expenses paid world cruise?"
Any takers?
