Talk:Innervisions

message: The last sentence of the first paragraph reads: The album's closer, "He's Misstra Know It All," is a scathing attack on then-US President Richard Nixon, similar to his song "You Haven't Done Nothin'".
I don't believe the song is about any politician, least of all Richard Nixon, since he is just about the opposite of the person described.
sample lyrics:
He's a man With a plan
Got a counterfeit dollar in his hand
Playin' hard Talkin' fast
Makin' sure that he won't be the last
Makes a deal With a smile
Knowin' all the time that his lie's a mile
Must be seen There's no doubt
He's the coolest one with the biggest mouth
If you tell him he's livin' fast
He will say what do you know
If you had my kind of cash
You'd have more than one place to go 
Any place He will play
His only concern is how much you'll pay
If he shakes On a bet
He's the kind of dude that won't pay his debt
When you say that he's livin wrong
He'll tell you he knows he's livin' right
And you'd be a stronger man
If you took Misstra Know-lt-All's advice
I think the song is just about a slick dude from the 'hood. I think this sentence should be deleted.

thread_title: Visions

message: According to my vinyl copy of Innervisions (an original pressing from the mid-70's) and my CD reissue from 2008, "All tunes are written by STEVIE WONDER"). The reference to Paul Bollenback is incorrect, and has no supporting information either way. I'm editing it accordingly.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.139.222 (talk) 19:33, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  BBC Radio 4 documentary 

message: The album credits two different studios: the Record Plant (Los Angeles, California) and Media Sound Studios (New York City, New York). Which tracks were recorded at which studios? The individual musician credits really give no clue. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:08, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Which tracks at which studios? 

message: The intro states that he "continued to experiment with the ARP synthesizer," however the Personnel section's breakdown of what was played only lists the Moog and TONTO synths. 2600:6C54:507F:5FFD:C47E:C351:177B:F4B9 (talk) 23:10, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where's the ARP? 

message: Sentence in question: "He made prominent use of the ARP synthesizer throughout the album, which was popular among musicians of the time because of its ability to construct a complete sound environment."
The musician/composer creates the "sound environment" (arrangement) with synthesizers among many other instruments. Stevie Wonder's ARP Odyssey and its kind (of the day) can only play one note at a time. 97.113.77.233 (talk) 13:57, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
