Stevie Wonder is one of the most beloved American icons and an indisputable genius, not only of R&B but popular music in general. Blind virtually since birth, Wonder's heightened awareness of sound helped him create vibrant, colorful music teeming with life and ambition. Nearly everything he recorded bore the stamp of his sunny, joyous positivity; even when he addressed serious racial, social, and spiritual issues (which he did quite often in his prime), or sang about heartbreak and romantic uncertainty, an underlying sense of optimism and hope always seemed to emerge. In The Many Faces of Stevie Wonder, we will explore both his early works (featuring collaborations with Marvin Gaye and Clarence Paul) and the vibrant Soul & R&B scene where he emerged triumphant, including songs by The Four Tops, The Temptations, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Otis Redding and more. With fantastic artwork and remastered sound, The Many Faces of Stevie Wonder is the most recent addition to our Many Faces collection. And remember that the album is not available on streaming platforms!
