Had my iPhone on shuffle while driving recently and this came on. Stevie Wonder wrote incredible music before and after the 70s but his output was remarkable during that decade. Unlike some other of his recordings from this decade where Stevie plays most of the instruments, he's got a full group of session players on this one. With shout outs to Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald. And one of the best riffs in pop music history which you hear for the first time starting at 1:03.
