Syreta (1972)

Debut album by Wonder than-wife who actually had very pleasant voice and was decent talent with or without him. Sure,without him there would not be so many doors opening for her but if you check composers behind these songs,you will find out that with all those heavy-weights (Stevie Wonder,John Lennon,Smokey Robinson) the best song is "Happiness" written completely by lady herself.


Sounds very much like Stevie Wonder's work of early 1970s and the second half of closing "To know you is to love you" turns into fiery instrumental that would not be out of the place on any of Wonder's own classic albums. The only thing this album lacks is some big hit - kind of meanders around without really going anywhere - but that would come soon.


Of great interests for Stevie Wonder fans.
