Marvel of Marvin [Import]

Product Description
A Man of Rare Qualities, Marvin Gaye's Body of Work Speaks for Itself. Away from the Public Glare, Gaye was a Complex, Unpredictable, Yet and Amusing and Charming Man. Though Not as Prolific as Other Motown Luminaries, his Work was Highly Regarded and his Classic Album, "Let's Get it On", from which Many of the Covers on "Marvel of Marvin" Are Taken, is Well Within the Pantheon of Timeless and Essential Albums, Soul, Funk, Or Otherwise. "Marvel of Marvin" is a Similar Project to the Phenomenally Successful "Wonder of Stevie" Projects on Harmless, but You Will Hear a More Familiar, More Commercial Sound on "Marvel of Marvin", with Gaye's Essential and Instantly Recognizable Songs Covered by Artists Such as Martha and the Vandellas, Otis Redding, Fred Wesley and the Jb's, Diana Ross, and the Temptations. As an Added Bonus, the CD Format also Includes a Bonus Disc of the Tracks Mixed in Fine Style by Big Marvin Fans, Four Hero.

Album Description

A man of rare qualities, Marvin Gaye's work speaks for itself. Away from the public glare he was a complex, unpredictable yet an amusing and charming man. Though not as prolific as other Motown luminaries his work was highly regarded and his classic album, What's Going On, from which many of these covers are taken, is well within the pantheon of timeless and essential albums, soul, funk or otherwise. The marvel Of Marvin is a similar project to the phenomenally successful Wonder Of Stevie projects earlier in the year, but you will hear a more commercial sound through Marvin Gaye, from the essential and recognizable (Martha & The Vandellas, Otis Redding & Clara Thomas) to the obscure and straight up frenzy inducing (Bobby Taylor & The Vancouver's and Delroy Wilson) this volume of classic covers, collaborations and cookies will have you asking for more and will make you wanna holler! 2 CD set. Harmless. 2004.
