1972 was an important year for Wonder: his new contract allowed him to produce albums without Motown's interference, and a spot as opening act on The Rolling Stones American tour widened his audience considerably. TALKING BOOK reaped the benefits of both, as two songs rose to number one on the pop charts ("Superstition" and "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life"), and his songwriting and singing continued to push the boundaries of pop music.

Following closely on the heels of MUSIC OF MY MIND (also released in 1972), TALKING BOOK was Stevie Wonder's most consistent, developed, and impressive album to date. Building on the already impressive qualities of its predecessor, TALKING BOOK combined all aspects of Stevie's musical personality--his superb compositions, his innovative keyboard sounds, his exuberant singing, and his skill in crafting lush, complex sonic landscapes--into a perfectly focused, polished package. The album's two hit singles, the warm, swaying love song "You Are The Sunshine of My Life" and the clavinet-driven funk workout "Superstition", proved he was onto something, and are still all-time classics in the artist's catalogue.
The surging stomp of "Maybe Your Baby" is a satisfying slab of hard funk, while "Blame It On the Sun" and "Lookin' For Another Pure Love" are ballad-like meditations on love (the latter with an excellent guitar solo from Jeff Beck). "Big Brother" marks Stevie's foray into political commentary; the bitter indictment of the lyrics counterpoint the sunny, clavichord-and-harmonica-fueled melodies. As original, moving, and enjoyable today as it was on its release, TALKING BOOK is one of Stevie's finest moments, ranking just behind his masterpieces INNERVISIONS and SONGS IN THE KEY OF LIFE.|

Talking Book [Remaster]｜CDアルバム
Stevieの代表的楽曲の1つ"You Are The Sunshine Of My Life"を含む3部作の1つ。
多分、3部作の中では初聴で一番耳当たりが良いのはこれじゃないかなと思います。
FunkありSoulありバラードありで純粋に聴きやすい。
最高傑作とは言えませんが、Stevieの才能が如何なく発揮された音源の1つと言えます。

トーキング・ブック＜生産限定特別価格盤＞｜CDアルバム
まさしくstevieの才能が開花した作品。
あまりに有名な１，６曲目や、ジェフベックも参加している９曲目も聞く価値ありです。
