Talking Book

It's an outrageously good article!  I particularly like David Sanborn's comments about how the band worked and songs evolved.  I'm also glad the article gave credit to Robert Margouleff and Malcolm Cecil for their contributions.  The use of synthesizers on this album literally changed pop music.  In 1972 he released "Music Of My Mind" and "Talking Book" at the age of 21.  Wow!!!

Hard to process-50 years!

Seems like just a couple years ago I was listening to the album when it was NEW.

Talking Book is an essential must have for Stevie Wonder fans.

Intro to "Maybe Your Baby" blasted is great to "feel" the Moog.

Innervisions was the only Stevie Wonder album I ever bought but it's a good one. 

Growing up in Canada I did not listen to much music from black musicians. Today my musical tastes are stuck in the 1970 - 1975 time period with R&B and Soul dominating (with some Zep thrown in).

I have a feeling that the music from that period will still be played 200 years from now.

Stevie Wonder ... to me, he is beyond categories. Anyone who hasn’t listened (carefully) to Songs in the Key of Live and Talking Book is missing works of musical history, US history, and beauty.
