Review

Bob Baldwin is more than adept at recording tribute albums – he has previously paid tribute to Michael Jackson and Thom Bell. His classy piano suits this selection of Stevie Wonder tunes. There are two self-penned tracks too – both of which (‘Wonder Wander’ and ‘Stevie’) are fine smooth tunes. Highlights include ‘Superwoman’, ‘Creepin’ and ‘Don’t You Worry Bout A Thing’. Guests include flautist Ragan Whiteside and vocalist Toni Redd.
