Over roughly five years, he released landmark albums - Music of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, Fulfillingness' First Finale, Songs in the Key of Life -- a run widely considered one of the greatest in music history. Songs in the Key of Life is widely regarded as the crown jewel in Wonder's career and one of the greatest albums ever made, a guided tour through a wide range of musical style and the life and feelings of the artist, touching on recollections of childhood, first love and lost love, faith, social justice and love among all peoples. In honor of this landmark album's release 50 years ago, this show celebrates the one and only Stevie Wonder. Less
