Ranked #350 on Rolling Stones list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and the beginning of the legends unsurpassed classic period, Stevie Wonders Music of My Mind remains a touchstone of American R&B. The records liner notes aptly sum up its genius: The sounds themselves come from inside his mind/The man his own instrument. The instrument is an orchestra.
Indeed, save for segments on two songs, Wonder played all of the instruments himself, demonstrating his newfound freedom of artistic control and upping the ante in terms of composition, performance, and execution. He draws from a diverse toolbox warm drums, vibrant bongos, breezy harmonicas, Fender Rhodes organs, tonally resonant pianos and of course, lays on his trademark, buttery smooth vocals. Yet Music of My Mind also features the first extensive use of synthesizers in black music. Wonder reveals the magic thats contained within Moog and Arp models, conscientious of the benefits and careful not to taint whats otherwise among the most organic soul and funk ever created.
Stretching out, Wonder lets several songs go beyond the five-minute mark. He employs the services of guitarist Buzz Felden, trombonist Art Baron, and an uncredited choir of background voices, but mostly, this is his show. Affectingly tender, I Love Every Little Thing About You and Seems So Long melt with conviction; Happier Than The Morning Sun epitomizes the contagious mood and upbeat emotions present throughout, Wonder delighting in mixing traditional melodies with then-unheard-of arrangements into a seamless whole.
For the first time ever, Mobile Fidelitys Silver Label pressing affords listeners the opportunity to hear Wonders aural orchestra with a clarity, range, and expressiveness never before made possible by prior pressings. Frequency-rich harmonics are one of the keys on this 1972 gem, and this editions ultra-clean surfaces and wide grooves unveil more music. Mastered on Mobile Fidelitys world-renowned mastering system and pressed at RTI, this numbered limited edition LP presents the first of Wonders five must-own records in truly extraordinary sound.
"These LPs ("Music Of My Mind" MFSLP1015 & "Talking Book" MFSLP1009) come from Mobile Fidelitys Silver Label. They are pressed on regular-weight vinyl, but the mastering process is the same Gain 2 Analog System as used for the heavier, more expensive releases. While the vinyl may be in a lighter weight class, the sound delivers a heavyweight punch. The pressings are dead quiet, and the overall presentation is liquidly smooth and appears against a pure black background. Voices and instruments inhabit their own spaces both in width and depth, providing an expansive soundstage. Ive been seduced by the sound nearly as much as the music each time Ive played these records, which has been almost daily for weeks. The beauty of the sound is complemented by the heavy gatefold sleeves that make for a package well worth the cost." - Eric Hetherington, www.theaudiobeat.com, Music 5/5, Sound 4.5/5
