In Concert (Remastered) - Marvin Gaye

Details

Marvin Gaye made an amazing contribution to soul music in general and the Motown sound in particular. In his early days at Motown, he played drums and piano on tour and in the studio for the likes of The Miracles and the Marvelettes. He wrote and co-wrote songs for other Motown artists, including the all-time soul classic “Dancing in the Streets” by Martha Reeves and the Vandellas. As a solo artist he recorded in a variety of styles, ranging from crooning pop balladeer to gritty soul singer to socially conscious auteur of ambitious concept albums. At every stage in his multi-faceted career, he projected an air of honesty and conviction driven by a fervid idealism. In the words of his biographer David Ritz, Gaye’s voice was that of “an angel trapped in a man”. Includes all his most famous hits such as "Heard It Through the Grapevine", "Let's Get It On", "What's Going On" and an amazing ten minute version of "Sexual Healing".
