    Last show we played the first half of this generous album, with only a few talking points, as the album itself has more material than we had time to play all of it!

    The same applies again for sides 3 and 4, due mostly to the addition of a bonus 7” disk that contains four extra songs that are equal in quality to the rest of the album.

    This album represented Stevie’s 3rd Grammy for Album of the Year in a four-year period, and that was only because he didn’t release an album in 1975! Few albums have maintained their relevance as well or as long as “Songs in the Key of Life”, which makes it a pleasure to play in full, as it can still sound fresh and new.

    Isn’t She Lovely
