Fulfillingness' First Finale is a landmark album by Stevie Wonder, released on July 22, 1974. It was the fourth of five consecutive albums widely hailed as his "classic period", along with Music of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, and Songs in the Key of Life. Subsequent to the epic sweep and social consciousness of Innervisions, this set projected a reflective, decidedly somber tone.

  • Fulfillingness' First Finale is a landmark album by Stevie Wonder, released on July 22, 1974. It was the fourth of five consecutive albums widely hailed as his "classic period", along with Music of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, and Songs in the Key of Life. Subsequent to the epic sweep and social consciousness of Innervisions, this set projected a reflective, decidedly somber tone. The musical arrangements used in several songs while masterful could be considered sparse in comparison to others among his 70s masterworks, evident especially in the bleak "They Won't Go When I Go" and understated "Creepin'". While largely a stripped down, more personal sounding record, Wonder had not completely foregone commentary on the world around him. The No. 1 hit "You Haven't Done Nothin'" launched a pointed criticism of the Nixon administration bolstered by a crunching funk rhythm. Fulfillingess' First Finale won Grammy Awards for Best Male Pop Vocal, Best Male Rhythm and Blues Vocal Performance, and Album of the Year in 1975. When Wonder took two years to record his follow-up album, this broke his consecutive Grammy streak and led to Paul Simon's famous quote thanking him for not releasing an album in 1975 (when Simon won the Album of the Year award for Still Crazy After All These Years). This album from Wonder's most commercially and artistically successful period is the only album not included in Rolling Stone magazine's November 2003 Top 500 albums of all-time list.
  • Fulfillingness' First Finale on Stevie Wonderin albumi vuodelta 1974. Se on neljäs Wonderin klassisen kauden albumeista, joihin lasketaan myös Music of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions ja Songs in the Key of Life. Monien muiden Wonderin albumeiden tapaan, Fulfillingness' First Finalella on vahva yhteiskunnallinen sanoma. Levyn ehkä tunnetuin kappale, "You Haven't Done Nothin'" on selvä hyökkäys Yhdysvaltain tuolloista presidenttiä, Richard Nixonia kohtaan. Kappaleesta tuli Wonderin neljäs listaykkönen USA:n singlelistalla. Fulfillingness' First Finale voitti Wonderille kolme Grammy-palkintoa, mukaan lukien Vuoden albumi -palkinnon.

Stevie Wonder n'a sorti son album suivant Songs in the Key of Life que deux ans après. Paul Simon, qui a gagné cette distinction en 1975 avec son album Still Crazy After All These Years a remercié Stevie Wonder de ne pas avoir sorti d'album cette année-là . L'album s'est classé premier à la fois au Billboard Pop Albums Chart et au Billboard Black Albums Chart. C'est le seul album de sa « période classique » qui n'a pas été classé dans la liste des 500 meilleurs albums de tous les temps par le magazine Rolling Stone en 2003.
