That was the challenge facg Motown matro Marv Gaye after his What’s Gog On op was released 1971. But stead of sufferg a seemgly evable letdown unr the weight of all that prsure, Gaye leveled up aga to make back-to-back classics.

The album mak s timate tentns clear om the first not of the ttosterone-charged tle track, as Gaye on strong wh a swag and swerve unheard his earlier Motown material. But jt like What’s Gog On, Let’s Get It On—over s ncise, hive 32 mut—was a soul symphony bigger than any one song, as Gaye had evolved om a sgl mache at Motown’s h factory to a visnary album artist producg his own work (here, wh Ed Townsend). But as much as Let’s Get It On is about, well, gettg on, tracks such as “If I Should Die Tonight” and the closer “Jt to Keep You Satisfied” reveal a raw romanticism and naked vulnerabily that would make Gaye the voice of “sensive people wh so much to give.
