2 | He's Misstra Know-It-All (Top 200)
3 | All in Love Is Fair (Top 1000)
4 | Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing (Top 1500)
5 | Higher Ground (Top 2000)
6 | Golden Lady (Top 3000)
7 | Visions (Top 4000)

Mostly great songs here, and the last two are really awfully good. A masterpiece of a record.

On listening again, this album flows pretty well. Consistent album (for me all tracks besides "Jesus Children" are at least 7/10), but I feel very strongly that Songs in the Key of Life eats this album for breakfast.

02 | Visions
03 | Living for the City
04 | Golden Lady
01 | Too High
05 | Higher Ground
07 | All in Love Is Fair
08 | Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing
09 | He's Misstra Know-It-All
06 | Jesus Children of America

That Anders Petersen photo should be a fun one.

The song "Visions" is not only my favourite one on this album but also my favourite one from SW's carreer.
Probably in my top 50 songs ever.

Innervisions could be one of the more consistent albums ever recorded. The level of every song is incredible, first 7 could easily make number one.

Only a sample if the wonderful level of anything recorded by Stevie Wonder at the beginning of the seventies.

2- 08 | Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing
