{"product_id":"stevie-wonder-talking-book-cd","title":"Stevie Wonder - Talking Book [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eTalking Book, in its remastered CD edition, is the 1972 album where Stevie Wonder truly arrived as an auteur, and it sounds as fresh and fearless now as it did then.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreed from the constraints of the Motown hit factory, Wonder wrote, arranged, produced and played most of this album himself, working with synthesiser pioneers Robert Margouleff and Malcolm Cecil. Together they built a sound that was warm, funky and futuristic all at once, setting the stage for the run of masterpieces that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou Are the Sunshine of My Life opens with pure, glowing tenderness, a love song so gentle it barely touches the ground. Then Superstition arrives, that strutting clavinet riff and those punchy horns making it one of the most recognisable grooves in all of popular music. You and I strips things back to voice and keys for a breathtaking ballad, and I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever) closes the album with soaring, hopeful grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn between, Maybe Your Baby and Big Brother dig into deep funk and pointed social commentary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the sound of a young genius discovering exactly what he was capable of, and a cornerstone of any soul collection worth the name.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57478980403505,"sku":"601215735420","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/1200x1200bb_ec33f1d4-eb56-4512-bb82-46efb6fa3371.jpg?v=1794396092","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/stevie-wonder-talking-book-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
