1973's Innervisions swings between delicate and airy ballads, Latin-influenced rhythms, and Stevie Wonder's own synth-heavy versions of raw funk and soul.

The striking juxtaposition between "Visions", a barely breathed hope that a world of peace might be upon us, and the great "Living for the City", a funky, pulsing tale of racism, is powerful, haunting, and still all too relevant. A classic album.
