Ungainly title, but this another cracking album from Stevie. The last of his four 1970s collaborations with synthesizer wizards Robert Margouleff and Malcolm Cecil, delivering another great dose of emotive soul, deep tight funk and gentle ballads. Just to mix things up, the Jackson 5 provide backing vocals on one track... the 'Superstitious'-esqe funk grind of "You haven't done nothin" (apparently lashing out at Nixon). The track "They won't go when I go" has a kind of jagged gospel to it that makes it sound like a precursor to 'pastime paradise' .
