Spike Lee Remembers Working With Stevie Wonder on the Soundtrack for Jungle Fever

Though he did compose original songs for the little-seen 1978 documentary The Secret Life of Plants and then later 1984's wafer-light rom-com The Woman in Red, few would put Stevie Wonder's movie soundtrack work on the same level as that of some of his 1970s soul music peers, such as Curtis Mayfield (Superfly, Claudine, Sparkle, Short Eyes), Isaac Hayes (Shaft, Truck Turner, Three Tough Guys), Marvin Gaye (Trouble Man), and Willie Hutch (The Mack, Foxy Brown).
