Description
Talking Book is Stevie Wonder’s genre-shifting masterpiece — a soulful blend of funk, pop, and introspective balladry that marked his creative liberation from Motown’s hit-making formula. This limited edition gatefold reissue is pressed on coloured 180g vinyl (colour may vary), featuring restored artwork and full lyrics insert. With iconic tracks like “Superstition,” “You Are The Sunshine Of My Life,” and “I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever),” this edition captures Wonder’s visionary use of synthesizers, clavinet, and Moog textures alongside deeply personal song writing.

Artist Overview
Stevie Wonder’s Talking Book ushered in a new era of artistic control and sonic innovation. As writer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, Wonder fused funk grooves with poetic vulnerability, setting the stage for his legendary run of 1970s albums. His influence on soul, pop, and electronic music remains profound — inspiring artists from Prince and D’Angelo to Anderson .Paak and Frank Ocean.
