Status of copy at Case Memorial Library
Contents: Smile please — Heaven is 10 zillion light years away — Too shy to say — Boogie on, reggae woman — Creepin' — You haven't done nothin' — It ain't no use — They won't go when I go — Bird of beauty — Please don't go. Originally released July 22, 1974. Background vocalists include Paul Anka (track 2), Minnie Riperton (tracks 5 and 7), and the Jackson 5 (track 6).
Eric R. Danton wrote in his Hartford Courant blog Sound Check: "As great as it was to have Springsteen and the Police play here in 2007, this has the potential to top it: The legendary Stevie Wonder plays a pair of shows Nov. 14 and 16 at Mohegan Sun. His recent music hasn't been life-changing, but the string of albums Wonder released between 1971-76 — 'Where I'm Coming From,' 'Music of My Mind,' 'Talking Book,' 'Innervisions,' 'Fulfillingness' First Finale' and 'Songs in the Key of Life' — are the work of an indisputable musical genius. Tickets go on sale Monday, Oct. 15, for $100 and $75 (a surprisingly reasonable price, given Wonder's resume and how infrequently he tours)" ("Stevie Wonder Adds Connecticut Shows," 10/10/07).
