The 2LP collection is newly remastered and housed in a beautiful gatefold package with rare photos from the Motown Archives, full track-by-track annotations and a celebratory essay by Scott Regen, a Detroit DJ who became a Motown staff writer and producer and who wrote the liner notes to Wonder’s first Greatest Hits album in 1968. 

Recently, Audible debuted the podcast The Wonder of Stevie. The show will explore the work and legacy of the musical icon with a focus on his “classic period,” when the musician, songwriter, and singer released a streak of five albums on Motown Records’ Tamla imprint between the years 1972-1976, forever changing American music. The series is the result of a collaborative effort between Higher Ground, the production company founded by Barack and Michelle Obama, and Questlove through his Two One Five Entertainment banner. It is also executive produced by Stevie himself, who will appear in the final episode for a conversation with President Obama and the series’ host Wesley Morris.

Speaking about the podcast and Wonder’s legacy, President Obama shared: “The first album I ever bought with my own money was Talking Bookby Stevie Wonder. Since then, his music has brought warmth and humanity to my life, just like it has for so many others.  With an incredible array of artists, experts, and the legend himself, this podcast gives you an even greater  appreciation of Stevie’s genius and his impact on American culture.”
