Advantages: A great introduction to Stevie Wonder packed with classics Disadvantages: Not as good as owning all the albums for the true Stevie fan
...[Also reviewed on Epinions and Dooyoo]
At The Close Of A Century is a 4 cd compilation of 70 selected StevieWonder tracks spanning his career from 1963 up to 1996, with a 92 page accompanying booklet. StevieWonder is a soul legend and musical genius (who has won over 20 Grammy Awards) if by some remote chance you are not aware. He has been and continues to be an inspiration for many artists and many of his songs have been covered by others.
The 4 cds are in chronological order and start off with "Fingertips Pts 1 & 2", a recording of a live performance of him aged just 12, singing, playing bongos and also harmonica. The drummer happened to be a certain Marvin Gaye. This track is one of many highlights for me personally - it seems to capture the essence of soul. A young, unrefined Stevie delivers a sweet performance...

Advantages: EXCELLENT LISTENING, STEVIE ON FORM Disadvantages: DIFFICULT TO PROMOTE WHEN THE ARTIST HAS SO MANY GOOD PIECES TO HAND.
...TO THOSE OF US WHO APPRECIATE REAL MUSICAL TALLENT...HERE'S A LEGEND IN ITS OWN LUNCHTIME... ONE OF STEVIES EARLIEST HITS 'FINGERTIPS' WAS CONSIDDERED HIS BEST... BUT FOR THOUGHT PROVOKING LYRICAL GENIUS, THIS PIECE COMES A CLOSE SECOND. ITS CONTENT SCREAMS AT YOU AS IVE TO REMIND YOU ... THAT CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF.... EVERYTHING REALLY IS ALLRIGH. MELODY AT ITS BEST AND INSTIMENTAL AT ITS VERY BEST THE LYRICS JUST CANT SAY ENOUGH TO JUSTIFY THE INNER FEELING THAT YOU GET WHEN YOU HEAR A ONE OFF... IF YOU KNOW JUST WHAT I MEAN!.
FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT THOUGHT THAT STEVIE MIGHT HAVE TYPED THIS HIMSELF.... THEN ITS POSSIBLE... EXCEPT HE DOES'NT NEED TO PROMOTE HIS OWN ALBUMS... THEY SPEAK... OR SING FOR THEMSELVES!...

Advantages: It's just fab, fab, FAB Disadvantages: None for me
...17 great StevieWonder ballads on 1 CD. I got a really great bargain when I bought it from Ebay for £3.00 (even though I'd already got it......don't ask, I'm just very stupid and my memory's really bad - I think it must be my age. But at least I've now got one for the house and one for the car)
It contains some of my very favourites - My Cherie Amour, You are the sunshine of my life and Lately to name just 3. AND it has my very very favourite - Stay Gold. What a fab song!
It is, as always, very easy listening with Stevie's usual fantastic harmonies
What a genius this man is. This is a must have for anyone's CD collection....
