Updatg his highly percsive but strg-lan groove for the dis set, Gaye clearly vised 1976’s I Want You as a makeout album. And the Ao-Caribbean ngas of “I Want You” and bossa nova lilt of “Sce I Had You” support a mix of rhythm and bety that ref to box self —punctuated by Gaye’s own murmurg, the sound flows like a sweet, sctive stream.

MARV GAYE’S ‘I WANT YOU’ GETS THE M+M MIX TREATMENT

Marv Pentz Gay, Jr. Marv Gaye was still a pretty good place, personally and profsnally, early 1976 as he was preppg the release of his 14th album, I Want last uple of albums – 1971's What's Gog On and 1973's Let's Get It On – were cril and mercial hs, wh the latter LP's tle track gog all the way to No.

MARV GAYE – I WANT YOU

But 1976, all was still relatively 1970, when he was assemblg the songs and ias that would rult What's Gog On, Gaye was leadg a new artist-driven mpaign at Motown, which slowly and tentatively began to loosen s grip on some s stable of stars. Gaye – who'd been around om nearly the start of the pany, sgg on his own hs as well as penng songs for others – wasn't given total ntrol of his mic until Trouble Man, but for the most part he was tsted wh his is, Gaye didn't always tst that visn himself. He end up playg a big part  shapg what eventually beme I Want the album's re – like Let's Get It On, the songs were about sex – was all Gaye.

NEW EP DISPLAYS THE REMIXED GLORY OF MARV GAYE'S "I WANT YOU"

Tracks like "Feel All My Love Insi" and "Soon I'll Be Lovg You Aga" (which clud the le "I'm gonna give you some head") reflected his to Marv Gaye's 'I Want You'Gaye and Ware holed up the artist's newly opened Marv's Room stud Los Angel, where they, along wh Motown's Funk Brothers ssn micians, spent chunks of 1975 and early 1976 workg on the album. Like he'd been dog on his prev rerds, Gaye multi-tracked himself sgg different also began experimentg wh a synthizer, which plemented the new mil directn Ware started steerg toward. More expansive and sweepg than much of Gaye's prev work, many of the songs on I Want You took a slow-burn approach to s meldg of soul, funk and dis.

(The openg tle track, for example, is a third over before Gaye starts sgg. ) Elements of jazz and doo-wop also found their way to the material, bridgg Gaye's '60s and early '70s mic wh a new all add up to a slightly disjoted but mostly ptivatg album that seemed like another turng pot for the artist, even upon s release on March 16, 1976.

The three-year break sce his last LP certaly had some effect here, but the mil leap had almost as much to do wh Gaye and Ware's bed weren't a whole lot of albums that sound like I Want You at the time, but the s sce, the album's "quiet storm" sound spired a genre, as well as an entire movement of neo-soul artists the '90s and beyond. Someone of Gaye's stature almost always charted well g off a prev succs, and the album's first sgle, the tle track, ma to No. 1 stud sgle "Got to Give It Up" om the otherwise Live at the London Palladium album 1977, the next year's Here, My Dear and 1981's In My Lifetime ntued a downward turn Gaye's reer that eventually picked up wh 1982's Midnight Love and pecially the "Sexual Healg" sgle before his 1984 wasn't long, though, before I Want You and, even more notably, Here, My Dear beme rnerstone rerds Gaye's late reer.

I Want You, at tim, n sound like a siar mercial kiss-off, but me om an entirely oppose spot Gaye's life, when he was a much better place.
