Nickinstoke Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I've just been listening to Stevie Wonder's (original, I presume?) version of "Until you come back to me", from the late 70s "Looking back" compilation,and wondered if it had ever been released previously? I can't find it on any albums from the time (it was recorded in January '67). Anyone know? Cheers Nick Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I have it on an old Dutch (or German) Stevie Wonder album. Will check the date when I get the chance. I've played it out a couple of times... though Aretha really nails it! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Daved Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I've got it on triple LP set and had assumed that it was released at the time it was recorded. Aretha's version is the best but Hil St. Soul is also very good. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Quite unbelievably, really, when you consider some of the second rate stuff that Motown used as filler for Stevie's late 60s albums.... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sutty Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 we had a discussion about stevies original version on ems a while back, the concensus was that it slipped out on 'looking back' possibly in error, but that it had not been released previously. both great versions (hil st. soul do a good version too), cheers Paul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest stonedsoul Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 the sounds of blackness do a great version of this song as well, they were a gospel group from minneapolis, it's on their first lp titled images of blackness from 74' Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Nickinstoke Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Thanks Guys - that'll save me looking for something that doesn't exist. I agree the Aretha version is tops, but I also like the Miki Howard version from 1989, despite the slightly dodgy late 80s backing. Nick Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
