CONVERSATION PEACE
| Stevie WonderCONVERSATION PEACE
Conversation Peace is the 22nd album released by American musician Stevie Wonder, on the Motown label in 1995. The album was Wonder's first full-length non-soundtrack studio album since 1987's Characters. This album yielded the hits "For Your Love" (a Grammy winner for Wonder for Best R&B Male Vocal Performance) and the reggae-flavored "Tomorrow Robins Will Sing". This album also saw Wonder reuniting with Robert Margouleff, who assisted during Wonder's "classic period" from 1972 to 1974. -Wikipedia

Rolling Stone
1995 - With snappy rhythms on the uptempo tunes and ballads that fall safely short of sappy, Conversation Peace speaks in a language that is both classic and contemporary.

Blog Critics
2011 - Conversation Peace remains a nice stop in the exploration of the music of Stevie Wonder. It may not be as essential as his classic 1970s releases but there is some cool music to be heard here.

The Spokesman Review
1995 - a top-of-form collection of tunes that should accomplish its goal - reminding people that Wonder is a superlative recording artist of today who should not be viewed solely in terms of past accomplishments

All Music
Wonder's gift for melody is still in place, and he incorporates understated hip-hop rhythms into his music well, yet he isn't able to make music that fit into the rigid play lists of '90s urban contemporary radio

Wilson & Alroy's Music Reviews
Eight years in the making, it had better be good - and it is, bringing contemporary production touches to excellent material

John McFerrin Music Reviews
the sound is contempoary without sounding excessively trendy (this album sounds WAY less dated decades onward than his 80s albums did), the songs are fleshed out to their bursting point and often beyond

So if at some level you've heard all this before, that doesn't mean it's worn out its welcome.
