About This Item
Double 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Stevie Wonder's Journey Through The Secret Life of Plants was originally released on the Tamla Motown tag on October 30, 1979. It is the soundtrack to the documentary The Secret Life of Plants, directed by Walon Green, which was based on the book of the same name by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird. Wonder created the film score by having Michael Braun, the film's producer, describe each visual image in detail, while the sound engineer, Gary Olazabal, specified the length of a passage. This information was processed to a four-track tape, leaving Wonder space to add his own musical accompaniment. Wonder attempted to translate the complex information of the book and film into song lyrics. Album Tracks 1. Earth's Creation 4 06 2. The First Garden 2 33 3. Voyage to India 6 24 4.
