Kansas City, MO – It was an emotional concert, since Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder both child prodigies, had been good friends and musical collaborators. KCUR's Susan B. Wilson was there and spoke to Michael Jackson fans about his legacy.
KCUR's Laura Ziegler also did some remembering of her own. She was a new reporter at KCUR 25 years ago when Michael Jackson began his so-called Victory Tour in Kansas City. She covered the story with colleague Ron Jones. Laura called him on Friday to reminisce.
