A very specific obsession.Ā An unmistakable sound; nobody else plays like Stevie, which is why he shows up on so many other artistsā songs.
Probably out of sync with most people's mental lists but hereās my top five:
1. Chaka Khan "I Feel For You"Ā
2. āBoogie On Reggae Womanā
3. Eurythmics "There Must Be An Angel"Ā
4. "Isn't She Lovely"Ā
5. "That Girl" (there's a drop in the solo that's THE sampled hook for the 2Pac track āSo Many Tearsā)

I think this is genuinely the best arranged track of all time. Insane horn parts. One of the best basslines of all time. Some of the best drumming youāve ever heard. Stevie Wonder harmonica solo. Dizzy Gillespie trumpet solo. Extended outro where he individually shouts out the session musicians on the track and they each have time to shine. Stevie Wonder is hyped out of his mind for the entire duration and seems so authentically excited about his song. Itās ten and half minutes long and I wish it was double that.

Hey tyler hopefully this doesnāt violate some PI.FYI golden rule
But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here:
https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/
The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s.
Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha).
For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I canāt wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ā¤ļø
