The Marvin Gaye discography opens with the sentimental tracks he preferred. But his true soul arises from sly, grainy, impassioned vocals. You can't call his singing merely pleasant! All the better for his hits, from "Stubborn Kind of Fellow" to "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." He sounds worked up even during duets with the charming Tammi Terrell. In a way, he returned to his dreamy spirit with the epic What's Going On. But by confronting social and environmental ills, he'd obviously come a long way from just thinking about his baby. As Marvin Gaye's experiences and outlook darkened, romantic fervor became fiercer, spiritual intimacy more intense. He'd certainly lived, loved, and left a remarkable legacy through his songs by age 44. This Marvin Gaye discography features albums all the way to his death. He'd moved on from the Motown groove and label by then, but I don't want to cut his accomplishments short. The Soulful Moods of Marvin Gaye (June 8, 1961) 1.
