Franck Pourcel - Isn't She Lovely

" Without music life would be a journey through a desert "
--- Pat Conroy

The French Maestro returns once more to this channel, this time with his interpretation of Stevie Wonder's song "Isn't she lovely".
The song, musically constructed over basic chord changes, is considered an example of the fusion of fundamental jazz and pop elements. Although the song was very popular and has received much radio airplay, it did not chart on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 because Stevie Wonder would not allow it to be released as a 45 RPM single even though requested to do so by Motown. The song did make the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts as an "album cut," entering the AC Top 40 on January 8, 1977, staying there for five weeks and peaking at #23tevie Wonder's song "Isn't She Lovely".
Numerous artists have performed the song, among them Frank Sinatra and Sonny Rollins.
Here Franck Pourcel pays tribute to the musical genius of Stevie Wonder in his very own and distinctive, lush orchestral style, with his "Grand Orchestre".
From the 2005 compilation "Greatest Hits" here is Franck Pourcel with "Isn't She Lovely".
Have a lovely time listening ;-)
