(“Innervisions” is the 16th studio album by American musician ‘Stevie Wonder’, released 3 August 1973, on the ‘Tamla’ label for ‘Motown Records’, a landmark recording of his “classic period”)

(the 9 tracks of Innervisions encompass a wide range of themes and issues: from drug abuse in “Too High”, through inequality and systemic racism in “Living for the City”, to love in the ballads “All in Love Is Fair” and “Golden Lady”)

(the album’s closer, “He’s Misstra Know-It-All”, is a scathing attack on then-US President ‘Richard Nixon’, similar to Wonder’s song a year later, “You Haven’t Done Nothin'”)

(as with many of Stevie Wonder’s albums, the lyrics, composition, and production are almost entirely his own work, with the “ARP synthesizer” used prominently throughout the album)

(the instrument was a common motif among musicians of the time because of its ability to construct a complete sound environment)

(‘Wonder’ was the first black artist to experiment with this technology on a mass scale, and Innervisions was hugely influential on the subsequent future of ‘commercial black music’)

(he also played all or virtually all instruments on 6 of the album’s 9 tracks, making most of Innervisions a representative “one-man band”)
