The Greatest Music
Innervisions
The 17th greatest album of all time
Innervisions, released in 1973, blends soul, funk, smooth soul and psychedelic soul into a studio-focused record built from warm electric pianos, layered synthesizers and tight funk rhythms. The album is notable for Stevie Wonder's multi-instrumental performances and production control, pairing intimate ballads with uptempo grooves and songs that explore social and personal themes through concise, melodic songwriting and rich, textured arrangements.
