Secret Life of Plants Notes: The Secret Life of Plants tour, only six shows long was quite a departure from what Stevie had normally been doing. The first set was played with a large screen above the band which showed portions of the film The Secret Life of Plants which many of these pieces were written to. He pretty much plays the entire album in a tighter form, it's simply amazing to hear Stevie weave this mesh of melody throughout the set. The second part of the show is more of a usual Stevie Wonder show, many of the usual classics, there is, however, a lot of new material during this set as well. There is a about a 8 minute segment of unreleased compositions sandwhiched between the piano ballads and also a very early live version of Do Like You which at this time is still called Work Like You. The Unfortunate thing about this recording is due to it's length the original taper didn't have enough media to cover the final minutes in which Stevie spoke for awhile about the album, film, tour and concept before moving into Tree & Finale.
