Although this is mostly a chord version, there is no
real alternative than tablature for the breaks.
For a single guitarist kicking in an effects pedal
like a Boss OC-2 for the unison breaks is affective
CAPO: 1st fret
(Will then sound in the recorded key of Cm)
Alternatively, tune all strings up a half-step to
F-A#-D#-G#-C-F then the tab will still sound in Cm
IGNORE THE CHORD BOX DIAGRAMS that the website
options for a particular chord progression. Just use
Chord names & fret positions are relative to the capo
Bm = x24432 F# = 244322 F#7/E = xx2322
A = 577655 E = 022100 E7/B = x20100
G = 355433 F# * = xx4322 E7/D = xx0100
If you find the chord changes too quick, or not
distinctive enough, another option for the
chord progression F# * - F#7/E - E7/D - E7/B
is just a bass note progression instead of chords:

The story behind the song
Stevie Wonder is celebrated as one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, a pioneer whose work spans R&B, pop, soul, gospel, funk, and jazz. His innovative use of synthesizers in the 1970s reshaped contemporary R&B, and he crafted albums as cohesive, socially conscious statements. Blind since birth, he was a child prodigy who signed with Motown at 11, quickly becoming one of their most successful acts, known for his harmonica playing and high-pitched singing. This song, "Master Blaster Jammin'", embodies the celebratory and genre-blending spirit characteristic of his music.
