Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Jazz - Part 2
Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
Stevie Wonder’s cult classic may not be a jazz album, but its jazz connections run deep—from Herbie Hancock, Dorothy Ashby, George Benson, Glenn Ferris, and Bobby Humphrey involved in its recording to Alice Coltrane, Chick Corea, Quincy Jones, David Sanborn, and Lenny White among the influences acknowledged in the liner notes. No wonder its songs have inspired hundreds of jazz renditions—and here's the second part of our playlist featuring some of the best, following the sequence of the original record.
The playlist features Ray Barretto; Blue Mitchell; Monica Shaka; Max Ionata, Dado Moroni; Marcus Miller; Najee.
