Way back in the 70s my dad bought home a music centre with three cassettes, including a ‘Stereo Spectacular’ compilation and two Stevie Wonder albums. We played this one first and I still remember those funky notes blasting out of the speakers with smooth perfection. After twenty minutes or so, we flipped to the B side and I heard Superstition for the first time - wow!
This is generally acknowledged to be the first album of Wonder’s classic period and it was the time that he started experimenting with early synthesisers, succeeding in making them an organic part of the music instead of the novelty bleeps and bloops of some other contemporary examples. They still sound fantastic today - a true classic.
