Stevie Wonder / At The Close Of A Century

スティーヴィー・ワンダーのアルバムは1枚も持っておらず、寄せ集めでも構わないからと探して、8年前に4,867円で購入したボックスセット。4枚組70曲。コストパフォーマンスは悪くなかった。しかし、最近は倍の値段で取引されている様だ。収録曲Isn't She Lovely?は、大学のジャズ研でよく練習した曲。

Stevie Wonder / Ballad Collection

大晦日。そして、感染拡大が止まらない状況にあって、バラードをゆったりと聴きたくなった。このバラード集には、いくつかのバージョンがあって収納曲が若干異なるようだ。所有するバージョンは国内編集。5曲収録のDisc 2そのものがボーナスとなっている。「心に火を灯す」というテーマで、CFのために書き下ろしたTo Feel The FireがDisc 1の最後に、そのゴスペル仕立てがDisc 2の最初に配置という心憎い構成。
