With a Song In My Heart is the third
studio album by
Stevie Wonder, released in 1963 on the Tamla (
Motown) label. The album was the first to drop Wonder's "Little" nickname, as the 13-year-old singer went the same route of his label mate
Marvin Gaye and covered a set of standards. Like Gaye and other Motown acts, label president
Berry Gordy wanted all of his artists to be established on a crossover basis. The album did not immediately spell success for Wonder on the adult contemporary set. Veteran jazz arranger
Ernie Wilkins arranged and conducted the album.
