Classic Vinyl #2 Stevie Wonder - Innervisions

 A talent like Stevie Wonder only comes along once in a generation. A multi-instrumental singer/songwriter/producer who signed up to his first record deal (Tamla Motown) aged 11 and had his first #1 hit when only 13. Born 6 weeks premature in 1950 as Stevland Hardaway Judkins, he was blind virtually from birth. He is still performing and active musically.

Innervisions was released in 1973 which makes my copy 51 years old; and it still plays beautifully. See here for a bit more on the story behind this album.

I've included all the tracks from the album below, courtesy of YouTube (sorry about the ads), so you too can appreciate this wonderful music. You can still buy copies on vinyl or you might be lucky and find second-hand copies in record stalls, shops, e-bay, etc.

My favourite track is Living in the City but it is a close call.


SIDE ONE

Too High

Golden Lady

SIDE TWO

Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing
