Fulfillingness' First Finale

In the last few days I have been feeling this 1974 laid back masterpiece by Stevie Wonder. Some I know dismiss it as a sandwhich album between the cohesive brilliance of Innervisions and the moumental Songs In The Key of Life , however I beg to differ. This album contains four of my all time favorite Stevie Wonder tracks, Too Shy To Say, Creepin', They Won't Go When I Go and the timeless You Haven't Done Nothin'. This album contains some of the smoothest tracks Wonder ever recorded and the aforementioned You Haven't Done Nothin' may be his funkiest. I highly recommend this album to anyone that loves music. Stevie's 70's output beginning with Music of the Mind and ending with the esoteric Journey Through The Secret Life of Plants was a streak of brilliance.

I prefer this album to Innervisions and Talking Book. In fact, it's pretty much tied with Songs in the Key of Life for me. An amazing collection of ballads here. My favorites are Smile Please, Heaven is 10 Zillion Light Years Away, Boogie on Reggae Woman, Creepin, It Ain't No Use, and They Won't Go When I Go.

If I remember right he made this album after he came out of a coma. My favorites are "Creepin" "You Haven't Done Nothing" "Heaven Is 10 Zillion Light Years Away" and "They Won't Go When I Go" of which I heard Alicia Keys wants to do a remake of.That should be interesting.
