Stevie Wonder is a household name when it comes to music. He has created music since he was a young boy - becoming one of Motown's youngest star at the age of 12. By the time we get to 1976 - when this album was released, he had already released 18 albums. The double album was produced by Stevie Wonder.
This album is a long one and full of diversity when it comes to music genres. I remember hearing Sir Duke in middle school when a jazz band played it. I often listen to 70's music and familiarized myself with several of the popular songs. As a whole - the album has so much to offer to those who favor genre infusions. I appreciate his successful attempt of blending jazz, soul and pop. He also had political messages with the lyrics they made you think about what was going on with the world during that era.
If you have the time - do listen to the album as a whole. I give it a 5 out of 5 rating without hesitation.
