~ Release by Stevie Wonder (see all versions of this release, 3 available)

Annotation

Cover and labels show copyright date of 1974, but the album was not released at this time at Stevie's request. The package also includes a 12-page photo booklet. In 1977, the package was released as LOOKING BACK, but without the booklet. However, the 1974 pressings were then released internationally.
