a fitting tribute 2 world peace and a reggae icon Bob Marley..... I remember when this first came out. MAN, radio WORE this out! It was everywhere. Yeah, Hotter Than July was a huge album for Stevie. I bought the single and the album. It was a MUST HAVE just like Off The Wall was. Everybody had this. Venice Beach,...this song was all u heard. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz.

Not one of my favorite tracks by him and the last of my favorite albums by Stevie. I perfer his early 70's material. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" | |

Stevie was on Jonathan Ross last night (UK TV) and included Master Blaster in a medley of songs. It was fantastic - the man is a true artist so, what is the answer 2 the question of U | |

I only like 3/4 of the songs from Hotter Than July. If he'd left out 3 or 4 more average songs from AT2L I'd like that one more than HTJ! | |

MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SONG BY STEVIE!  "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

this song reminds me of
my late cousin Cheryl "The Pearl" I remember walking to her house when she stayed down here and hearing this song BLASTING from her house Hotter Than July is probably my least favorite Stevie album that I own... like some others mentioned here I only like about half of that album and never got what the big hype was about it... because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

no it wasn't. Stevie sang "Superstition", "I was made to love her" and "Sir Duke" on Jonathon Ross | |

One of my all time favorite Stevie Wonder songs. Beautiful. "POOR IS THE MAN WHO'S PLEASURES DEPEND ON THE PERMISSION OF ANOTHER" Madonna

I remember the beaded curtains separating the rooms... (the 70's/80's was much more fashionable for those lil shotgun houses in the hood I mean you could really deck a place out with a lil of nothing) the herbal essence in the air
errrrthang... like it was yesterday she was doing laundry yeah, "Master Blaster" is dope although "Rocket Love" could easily get best track from there too  [Edited 9/13/08 19:05pm] because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

Great song off a good album, If he had kept "Let's Get Serious" instead of giving it to Jermaine it woulda been a great album. | |

[Edited 9/13/08 19:05pm] My faves are Rocket Love and Lately. I agree, he should have kept Let's Get Serious and You Are My Heaven for himself and it would have been a great album. | |

IMO, Hotter Than July already is a great album; it just isn't as good as the '70s albums. I think it's consistently good with no weak tracks. As for my favorite, I'd have to go with "I Ain't Gonna Stand for It." It's funky, a little goofy, and features Charlie & Ronnie Wilson of the Gap Band -- there's no way I couldn't love it.

speaking of Cholly Wilson... was he ever in the group SWITCH? the album cover for II has a dark skinned fella on there that eerily favors Cholly, last name Wilson because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

it woulda been a great album. OMG,I totally agree! The opening song "Did I Hear You Say You Love Me" is very weak.Imagine if the album opened with the superior "Let's Get Serious" instead.That would have been one of Stevie's biggest hits. | |

Loce song and album - I remember being a kid and this ong was everywhere. Shouldn't be compared to earlier Stevie. Should be remembered in its own right. Totally defined a point in time. "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"
"That's becuase we're soulless auttomatons" | |
