Barn died on April 27, 2009 after a brief Palmer had a UK top ten h 1991 wh a medley of this song and another Marv Gaye number, "Mercy Mercy Me (The Elogy).

Jan Gaye says: “‘I Want You’ is a timels phrase spoken or sung every language. “’I Want You” has always been one my favore Marv Gaye songs, so when I was able to listen to all his isolated vol tracks, I realized there was so much more to – and I wanted to give listeners a multi-dimensnal experience.

Marv Gaye. Marv Pentz Gay, Jr.

The one love, of urse, is the "Prce Of Motown" himself, Marv Gaye and the object of his affectns is the lovely Janis Hunter wh whom Marv had been a relatnship sce 1973 when he was legally separated om wife Anna Gordy Gaye.

In his book, "Divid Soul: The Life and Tim of Marv Gaye, thor David Rz talks about this very thg.

He tells of his nversatns wh Gaye ncerng how he viewed life and sexualy and Marv was always tryg to bridge the Physil and Spirual aspects of life. Rerd 1975-1976 "Marv's Room, Hsville Wt" rerdgs studs built pecially for Gaye, the productn tr of Gaye, Leon Ware & Arthur Ross laid out an erotic, low key, productn style that was perfectly sued for Marv's sgg and songwrg.

Now on to my product review: I am always amazed at how timels Marv Gaye's voice and mic are.

No matter what mood I am , my ears are always welg to the sounds of Marv Gaye!

I Want You, while a Top Ten smash for Marv Gaye 1976, is not as generally as well-known as s precsors for several reasons. Third, Gaye hadn't rerd nearly three years and crics were onto somethg else -- exactly what, retrospect is anybody's gus.

From the amazg Ernie Barn ver patg "Back to Sugar Shack" to the Coleridge-Taylor Perkson strg and horn arrangements to Leon Ware's exotic productn that relied on keyboards as well as dms and bass as rhythm stments, I Want You was a giant leap for Gaye. But the most astonishg thgs about I Want You are s timacy ( was dited to and rerd ont of Gaye's future send wife, Jan), silky elegance, and seamls textur. Gaye worked wh producer Leon Ware, who wrote all of the origal songs on the album and worked wh Gaye to revise them, th lendg Gaye a -wrg cred.

The tle track is a monster two-step groover wh hand percsn playg unterpot to the strgs and horns layered agast a spare electric guar solo, all before Gaye begs to sg on top of the funky backbeat.

Art Stewart's engeerg rounds off all the edg and mak Gaye's already sweet croong stment to the te gra the voice of sctive need. "Feel All My Love Insi" and "I Want to Be Where You Are" are anthems to sensualy wh strgs creepg up unr Gaye's voice as the guars move through a seri of chunky chang and dms punctuate his every syllable.
