Journey Through The Secret Life Of Plants was Stevie Wonder's most confusing, under-rated, and most under-appreciated work, out of a nearly 20 year career upto that point. Released in 1979, it was a soundtrack to the documentary of the same name directed by Walon Green.
The album went to number four in the Rock and R&B Billboard Charts in 1979.
Written mostly by Stevie Wonder, a couple of songs were collaborated with former wife Syreeta Wright. Also collaborations with Michael Sembello on songs were evident.
This album contained unusual synthesizer combinations and mostly instrumental. Highly considered as a mediocre follow-up to Stevie Wonder's 1976 Grammy Award winning album, Songs in the Key of Life.
It is notable for being an early digital recording, released three months after Ry Cooder's Bop Till You Drop, generally believed to be the first digitally recorded popular music album. Stevie Wonder was an early adherent of the technology and used it for all his subsequent recordings.
