Marv Gaye is different, different for one simple reason: he had immense talent, not jt as a sger but also as a songwrer that set him on a higher plane, as well as a social nscience that advoted change. Wh 1963’s ‘Pri and Joy’, Gaye sred his first Top Ten smash, but often found his role as a hmaker stiflg – his sire to bee a crooner of lh romantic ballads, ran direct opposn to Motown’s all-important emphasis on chart succs and the ongog battle between his artistic ambns and the label’s mands for a mercial product, ntued throughout Gaye’s long tenure wh the pany.

Wh 1964’s Together, a llectn of duets wh Mary Wells, Gaye sred his first chartg album; the duo also notched a number of h sgl together, cludg ‘Once Upon a Time’ and ‘What’s the Matter Wh You, Baby?

However, Gaye’s greatt duets were to be wh Tammi Terrell, wh whom he sred a seri of massive hs, penned by the team of Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson, cludg 1967’s ‘A’t No Mounta High Enough’ and ‘Your Prec Love’, followed by 1968’s ‘A’t Nothg Like the Real Thg’ and ‘You’re All I Need to Get By’. The team’s succs was tragilly cut short 1967 when, durg a ncert appearance Virgia, Terrell llapsed to Gaye’s arms on-stage, the first evince of a bra tumour that abptly end her performg reer and fally killed her on March 16, 1970.

A highly percsive album, which rporated jazz and classil elements, to fe a remarkably sophistited and fluid soul sound, What’s Gog On was a nceptual masterpiece that brought Gaye’s eply held spirual beliefs to the fore. Explorg issu rangg om poverty and discrimatn to the environment, dg abe, and polil rptn; chief among the rerd’s ncerns was the nflict Vietnam, as Gaye stctured the songs around the pot of view of his brother Frankie, himself a soldier recently returned om bat. As a rult of a 1976 urt settlement, Gaye was orred to make good on missed alimony payments by rerdg a new album, wh the tentn that all royalti earned om s sal would then be award to his ex-wife.

In 1981, longstandg tax difficulti and renewed prsur om the IRS forced Gaye to flee to Europe, where he began work on the amb In Our Lifetime, a eply philosophil rerd that ultimately severed his longstandg relatnship wh Motown after he claimed the label had remixed and eded the album whout his nsent. Gaye's legacy ronated over the s -- he was a touchstone for soul and pop mic that was eher sensual or polil -- but his early ath leav hangg the qutn of what he uld've achieved if he were alive. A mister the Hoe of God, Reverend Marv Gay ran a strict hoehold and his son -- who would add an "e" to his surname when he signed to Motown/Tamla, partially tribute to his idol Sam Cooke -- sought refuge mic.

In parison, 1966 was relatively quiet for Gaye -- while "One More Heartache" reached number four on the R&B chart, was his only pop Top 40 h that year -- but 1967 began wh the immortal Kim Wton duet "It Tak Two, " which peaked at 14 pop and four R&B. Over the three s, Motown often repackaged Gaye's mic, sometim releasg splashy archival packag, such as 1997's Vulnerable, which revived a ballads album Gaye abandoned 1977, and 2019's You're the Man, which llected the extant 1972 rerdgs om the sger. 1s0UK Top 10s4UK Top 40s10UK Top 75s18Weeks the Top 10Weeks the Top 1015Weeks the Top 4095Weeks the Top 75169MARVIN GAYE news Official Sgl Chart05 Aug 196416 Dec 196405 Oct 196601 Feb 196723 Jan 196818 Jun 196808 Oct 196828 Jan 196918 Feb 196910 Jun 196929 Jul 196915 Nov 196909 May 197011 Dec 197122 Sep 197323 Mar 197420 Jul 197407 May 197724 Feb 1979POPS, WE LOVE YOUDIANA ROSS/SMOKEY ROBINSON/MARVIN GAYE/STEVIE WONDERPeak: 66, Weeks: 530 Oct 198208 Jan 198326 Nov 198318 May 198526 Apr 198628 Jun 198614 May 199406 Oct 2001MUSICERICK SERMON FEATURING MARVIN GAYEPeak: 36, Weeks: 227 Apr 2013 Official Albums Chart16 Mar 196822 Aug 197010 Nov 197319 Jan 197415 May 197630 Oct 197628 Feb 198120 Nov 198215 Jun 198512 Nov 1988LOVE SONGSMARVIN GAYE AND SMOKEY ROBINSONPeak: 69, Weeks: 903 Nov 199009 Apr 199409 Apr 199407 Feb 199819 Feb 200001 Sep 200125 Mar 200613 Feb 201009 May 2019 Official Sgl Sal Chart Official Sgl Downloads Chart Official Physil Sgl Chart Official Sttish Albums Chart Official Albums Sal Chart Official Album Downloads Chart Official Physil Albums Chart Official Vyl Albums Chart Official Vyl Sgl Chart Official Rerd Store Chart Official Dance Sgl Chart Official Hip Hop and R&B Albums Chart Official Hip Hop and R&B Sgl Chart Official Inpennt Albums Chart Official Inpennt Sgl Chart Official Mic Vio Chart.
