Cory Henry's Spark Is Stevie Wonder’s Journey Through “The Secret Life Of Plants”

My guest is Grammy award winning keyboard virtuoso Cory Henry who spoke to me about his spark, Stevie Wonder’s album Journey Through “The Secret Life Of Plants”.

It's one of the strangest and least known albums in Stevie Wonder's back catalogue. Part film score, part concept album, it's full of beautiful melodies and unexpected changes of direction.

Cory's appreciation for this album has grown throughout his life and he loves helping his friends to discover it. We talk about the strange history of its creation and the impact it had on Wonder's career.

Plus, you'll get to hear my exclusive preview of Fantastic Fest!
