Stevie Wonder Announces Two New Albums




6.6.08
Link

Stevie Wonder has announced the release of two new albums, ‘Gospel Inspired by Lula’ and ‘Through the Eyes of Wonder’.

The former is set to be released later this year and is a tribute to his late mother, Lula May Hardaway, who passed away 2 years ago. The latter is Wonder’s take on what other people see. More details to follow.

Wow, that's great news! I'm looking forward to hearing this.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

consdiring Motown, that's probably likely, though they'll just keep pushing back the release date rather than outright cancelling them. sigh

again, do you think Through The Eyes Of Wonder is a cover version album? HIS vision of other people's songs?
Well, unreleased tracks would be the coolest option. It's great news...

Some of it may show up on one of these albums.

I heard him mention on his show recently that "All I Do" was written in the 60s for Tammi Terrell to sing. She recorded it and so did Kim Weston, but neither were released. He said he recorded the song a few times before he finally came up with the version we hear today.

I kind of hope he does a few covers. He really should release his version of Upside Down (like he did at the BET Awards....it was FIRE). I also enjoy hearing him do covers live on the air on Thursday mornings....it's amazing.

I hope u mean WILL. lol

That kind of sux. I know Stevie is all about keeping the integrity of the original project and not altering it, but some outtakes would be nice (here and there). Besides, we don't know what Motown has in their vaults. If they have it, they can release it.

i dont trust Stevie with "promises" after the 10+ delays of the last album.
