Customer Rating:      Summary: Great album Comment: Love this cd. Remember hearing it when I was a kid. Although the release is older than I am. The seller delivered the cd on time and I will purchase from seller in hthe future.
Customer Rating:      Summary: a definitive set of compositions Comment: Stevie Wonder helps listeners crown him the great American songwriter of post-WWII with "Key of Life." This set of music is a perfect combination of sensitive, meaningful lyrics, memorable melodies, exquisite sound production, and incredible musicianship. (Add in great guest spots from players like Herbie Hancock and George Benson, too.) Certainly we hear great soul music throughout, but the ballads - Love's in Need, I Am Singing, If It's Magic, just to name three - lead this listener to declare Stevie Wonder deserving of recognition for ages and generations to come as one of the greatest American songwriters of all time!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Songs In the Key of Life Comment: This album is a master piece! If you are A Stevie Wonder fan and you don't have this CD you're missing out on a true piece of American music history. This is one of the best Albums ever produced.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The BEST! Comment: This CD is probably the best Stevie Wonder has ever made. I remember when it came out and I knew that Stevie was destined to be great forever. I hoped that he would progress from here but I think this CD remains his best work ever. I still think there is more that Stevie Wonder has to give the world in terms of music. I think he can be one of the greatest composers of our time--right up there with Aaron Copeland and Leonard Bernstein.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Rock me, Stevie Wonder! Comment: For someone who was a baby at the time this was originally issued, I sure do see the relevance today of Stevie Wonder's music. He is the king of funk. This album has some of his best works. What an amazing talented guy!

Editorial Reviews:

Songs in the Key of Life (1976) was the highest high point of Stevie Wonder's career. More sprawling than Innervisions and Talking Book, this two-LP-plus-EP was also less of a consistent stunner than either of those masterworks. That Songs retains an enormous amount of visionary relevance, though, is demonstrated not only in Coolio's borrowing of "Pastime Paradise" as a template for "Gangsta's Paradise," but in the cold-as-ice synthesized string quartet of "Village Ghetto Land." This is Stevie, so naturally that cut's anger is balanced by the ultra-buoyant "I Wish," "Sir Duke," and "Another Star." The 2000 reissue boasts radically improved remastered sound. --Rickey Wright
