No "Fingertips"? Fuck this bullshit poll that I didn't vote in.

WTF I was the only voter for "You Met Your Match." Happy to see 2 other people voted for "All Day Sucker."

xp Aw, Gary Byrd's Are You Ready for Black Power? is great.

I thought Fingertips would be Top 10, easy. So much joy in that record.

I'd vote "Heaven is 10 Zillion Light Years Away" #1 if we redid this. really I'd vote Stevie's drum playing #1, so into that today. do we have a thread just for Wonder as a drummer?

No arguments here.

Ranking those albums.

Talking Book is the one album in the whole classic run that just doesn't connect with me on the same level as the rest.

(Musiquarium has four new songs too.)

That's me and Songs xpost

The Silky Veils of Alfred (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 31 August 2018 12:16 (five years ago) link

I garbled that sentence. I was trying to say that two of the new songs were best-ever cuts.

The Silky Veils of Alfred (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 31 August 2018 12:16 (five years ago) link

Ah, got it. Yes, "Front Line" is neither fantastic nor a classic.

Inspired by Chris's Hit Parade podcast, and upon realization this hadn't been turned into a Spotify playlist ...
