    Marvin Gaye is the definition of "cool" with his wise lyrics and smooth as silk voice. This artist was ahead of his time in trying to bring awareness to the inequalities and struggles in the world during that period which are still as relevant today. Such a shame that his life was cut short. Just love this man. Rest in peace Marvin knowing that your contributions to the music industry and messages of love for one another were beyond generous. 🦋

    1971. A tumultuous time. The Vietnam war was winding down. Nixon had promised to end the war and he was at least keeping that promise, anyway. But when he promised, "I am not a crook......, well we know how that worked out.
    As I said the war was winding down, but the protests continued. I was in agreement with the protests.
    Today, knowing all I now know, I'm not so sure we were right.
    Gerald Ford showed his metal in ending the war and his quick decisive actions in the Mayaguez incident. He earned my respect and I was a liberal in those days.
    That being said, this is an iconic song and right or wrong, it's a page in history.
    Ah, 1971. I was 16 years old and just beginning my truly rebellious years. lol
    Brings back fond memories.

      I'm pretty sure he didn't play most of the instruments. I think that's him on piano, and he was once a drummer, so it could - possibly - be him on drums, but it probably isn't; as someone else has said, it's James Jamerson on bass, and Marvin didn't play guitar.

    Lex, you have the ability to instantly get right into the groove . I grew up in Motown area in the 50s and 60s, Ray, Dionne, Marvin and Tammi, Stevie, Al Green, The Temptations, The Tops, The Supremes, Martha, Smokey, Roberta, Donny and gave me a life heart felt love of Soul music. All through the later decades, Isaac, Barry, Luther, Teddy, Anita, on and on, so many Great voices. This album dropped when I got back from Vietnam in 1971, it was on another level, the acclaim that it received was unbelievable. Wore out the vinyl over and over. This album is a masterpiece and you need to react to other songs on album. Inner City Blues, Mercy Mercy Me. Still considered top 5 albums ever made. Just ask your parents and grandparents about this album and what it meant to them. Changed my life. React to Lisa Fischer and her Grammy masterpiece, "How Can I Ease The Pain".

    Very iconic Vietnam war protest song. I remember every night on the news as a high school kid, watching the protests in the streets, and wondering if the war would end before I turned 18 and graduated. My Brother went to Vietnam 3 tears earlier. Everyone in every neighborhood across America, had a brother, cousin or friend, that was in Vietnam. The same could be said of WWII in the 1940s. War is always horrible, but sometimes necessary.

    Marvin Gaye got his start with Motown where he had all those beautiful duets with Tami Terrell! He broke away because wanted to do more serious music and this was one of the songs he did about what was going in socially at that time! People were protesting the Vietnam War as well as civil rights! The thing about this song is that it is still relevant today with all the police brutality and protesting about many injustices! Great song!❤❤

      With the album he processed his grief for the tragic death of Tammi, who died a year earlier.

    The voices you hear in the background are two members of the Detroit Lions football team. Marvin tried out for them but didn't make it. So to show his gratitude, he invited them to be on this song.
    If you listen closely, you can hear someone say "pass the football"🎼🎵🎶🎵

      That is true, Samuel. It was Lem Barney and Mel Farr. Farr was a running back who later opened a Ford dealership in the Detroit area. And Barney was a defensive back and kick returner.
