The Very Best Of Marvin Gaye - Marvin Gaye

Let's Get It On - Marvin Gaye

What words can ever do Marvin Gaye justice? I first fell in love with him and that incredible voice when I heard Abraham, Martin and John (not on this album, sadly) for the very first time. It has remained my all-time favourite song. As for his classic, Let s Get It On - this is absolutely mind-blowing in its perfection. The title track is one of the sexiest and most seductive songs ever - a great song to fall in love to! As with all Marvin Gaye s songs, there is a depth of soul and passion that is hard to beat. Let s Get It On is also a bonus remix at the end of the album and that s brilliant, too. One of my favourite tracks is number 6, Distant Lover , which ...

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

What s Going On has been re-released in a special edition package. The original album was a seminal effort; groundbreaking for Marvin s production, the socio-political message and for the unquestionable beauty of the songs. In 1971,What s Going On was a complete departure from the free soul machine of the sixties. Mowtown were dubious about releasing the album, thinking it too risky for their profitable pop label. However it would set the tone for soul and funk through the seventies, echoing the feeling that things should and would change. The album would directly influence great artists such as Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder, with it s dreamy use of ...

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

The original version of Marvin Gaye's classic album What's Going On is available mid-price at around £10.99. However, if you really appreciate this album then pay about five pounds more and purchase the deluxe edition. What you get is two CDs instead of one. The first CD contains the original album digitally remastered, and directly after it you get the original Detroit mix of the album which was refused. The mix is both different enough and similar enough to be both enjoyably new and not too far from the fans' perception of the original. I particularly like the new mix for Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler), as it sounds more sparse yet angry. After ...
