Marvin Gaye ~ Let's Get It On 1973 Soul Purrfection Version

- Producer/writer/perfomer Ed Townsend had his own hits, "For Your Love" from 1958 is one as well as creating R&B classics for Theola Kilgore and Dee Dee Warwick. In 1972, he was visiting Los Angeles and heard the rumor that Marvin Gaye was asking about him. Going straight to Gaye, he brought a few songs to the table and Gaye agreed to record them if Townsend produced them. With Gaye's blessing, Ed secured a 50% publishing stake of the songs and the project was a go. The musicians who played on the track inlcuded the Crusaders Joe Sample on keyboards, guitarists David T Walker and "Wah Wah" Watson, Wilton Felder on bass, and Gaye on piano. Marvin was very into layering his vocals and other studio tricks which Townsend ended up challenging. Townsend stopped the recording and admonished Marvin by saying "I understand why you don't go on tour because you can't take the studio with you and stop and overdub at Madison Square Garden. You have to start at the beginning and go to the end." Ed was not used to a lot of overdubbing as the going production style was to record the music to two tracks, then four tracks with the vocal being recorded once over that. Marvin got ticked off, took off his shirt in the studio and nailed the vocal in one amazing ten minute take. When he was done, he put his shirt back on and asked "Now what do you think?". Townsend was ecstatic with the results and feels that Marvin was the most cooperative artist he ever worked with. When this one first came out, it was surprising to hear such explicitly carnal lyrics, but that is just what drove the success. The song was #1 for six weeks R&B and spent two weeks at the pinnacle of the Hot 100.

Another great job. A treat for our ears. 👍
Hey DJ'PYLCatV2 and DJDiscoCatV2.
A good choice of old collection a true blast from the past
Even though I can not dance DJ but I can only dance in my mind. Lol!
Amen to that comment fellow @DJ' PYL - Funk Disco Soul Groove!
I betcha a lot of people and including my mother been going a lot drinking when every time they listen
to Marvin Gaye. I've seen it happen. Lol! I love that song.
This is "Our Song" my new boyfriend chose for us. (We are both 70 years old!) Marvin Gaye is time-less. 💗💞
Best music...60s
Sorry, but I guess I'm old school and I grew up when this song was #1. It's the song that made Marvin Gaye one of my favorite singers along with Stevie Wonder and Al Green. Anyway, I know people can do this or that with songs now a days (remix), but, in my opinion, you don't mess around with perfection. One of the best songs of all time. RIP Marvin Gaye
*"Were you born in 1974? Then you were probably conceived to this song. If you were born after 1974, there remains a good chance that you were conceived to this song."*

*Blog entry on this song*
I was 16 years old when to Let's Get It On was released. the 75 thumps down missing out on some of the most amazing music
Came out in 73, I was 16. Too.
I Was 3yrs old
"Let's get it on" was Lil Friend ringtone to me. He died from cancer. Everytime I hear this I cry. Such good memories. No romance yet we loved each other.💙
You should have gotten on with him...than instead of sad tears ...tear of joy
Let Your Love Come Down.! 62 and this has Always been a Favorite. Good Old Days of Music and Everything. Something like Sanctified..
Marvin Gaye is one of those artists with a specific emotional response of happiness.
Before they industrialized music
７３年全米No.１に輝いたモータウン永遠の大ヒットナンバーで、当時日本でＢ面曲、テンプテーションズのカバー、邦題🎵「雨に願いを」とのカップリングで、モータウンレーベル、ビクターからシングル発売。他、邦題🎵「夢を追いかけて」Ｂ面曲邦題🎵「遠い恋人」など、アルバムからのシングルカットで、同じく発売された。ちなみに、🎵「雨に願いを」は、オリジナルよりはかなりハイテンポにアレンジされていて、なかなか気付きにくいナンバーだ。後者のナンバー、Ｂ面曲🎵「ディスタントラヴァー邦題、遠い恋人」は、反対にＡ面曲よりヒットしたナンバーだ。
This version is really something. 8 and a half minutes of pure joy
Have my headphones on super loud 🗣️ and appreciating a world class tune by rocking my head back and forth and not giving a damn about my problems … Red Cup 🥤Approval Tune 🇿🇦 Thank you Soul Train for the journey …

Marvin Gaye is one of the BEST American Musicians/Singers EVER. He was a GAME CHANGER & A TRUE ADVOCATE FOR HIS RACE OF BEAUTIFUL BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND OF EVERYYY RACE. HE WAS A MAN OF GOOD AND TRUE LOVE WHO LONGED FOR PEACE AND EQUALITY AND HIS SOUL SPOKE LOUDLY OF THAT. TY MARVIN!

Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite artists from the 70s, please upload more songs from him
La escuché por primera vez en la casa de mi tía cuando yo tenía unos 5 años. Ahora con 27 no he podido superarla, es mi canción favorita, no encuentro otra canción similar
Escuchaba esta cancion en la radio "art laboes oldies" mientras conducia entregando pizzas con mi apa en sur de california... pues no existe alguien quien supera al gran Marvin Gaye
❤ LEGEND ❤
What a hugh artist
Merci 😊
Solo basta decir....gracias DJDiscoCat, por tus excelentes presentaciones, sobre todo con música según mi humilde opinión, de los años 70, mi época favorita. Este es mi artista preferido, Mr Marvin Gaye ( Rest In Pace ).
Beautiful ❤
In my opinion, this is your best achievement and your best work.
I've been listening to your remixes for a few years now and enjoy many of them thoroughly. Unlike the typical remix, what I love about your work is that you aren't desperate to leave your fingerprint on the remix. You leave your ego out of it. So your songs *sound* like the original artist. As a result, a lot of your work becomes the answer to the question of, "What would an extended version of '____ ______ __ ____' have sounded like if the original artist had done one?" Imagine being given the gift of an extended version of "Stayin' Alive", "Night Fever", the Donna Summer songs, the Marvin Gaye songs, or any other track that happens to be someone's favourite... and that's what you've done. It's truly wonderful and I thank you.
In the case of "Let's Get It On", I honestly never cared much for the original song. I think it is probably because I am fairly young, and this song is overplayed and a bit exhausted. Your remix made me truly appreciate the song because you stretch it out, and let the high points hit with the proper build up and release. Marvin's version has all of those high points, of course, but it is so tight knit that somehow, despite many listens, I never truly appreciated it. His "threatenin' you" line really hits, for example, and it is my favourite moment in your version.
Love and peace is on and off!
So good, you can't tell what you did, it sounds like it was originally released like this. So good!!
Marvin would’ve been proud. He probably would’ve said “damn i should’ve done it that way” ha. Great job! One of my mom’s favorite songs.
My brother. Thanks to you and Marvin, we can get it on even longer!! Can you do anything with Marvin's sequel: Keep on getting it on?"
Absolutely superlative work on the intro. Made my night. Thanks so much for your hard work.

I can see it now DJ. Hahahahahahahaha! Every time Marvin Gaye's sounds Let's Get It On comes
up on the radio stations, people would ending up getting drunk or my mother would use to play the
record over and over gain, until it skips. Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Marvin Gaye's songs goes way
back a long way. You will not find these kind of music like these wonderful artist such as Marvin Gaye, The Spinners, Eddie Kendricks, Smokey Robinson, and Stevie Wonder. They are more artist I just couldn't name them all. I grew up with these old school artist. My mother had her Blues, so why not
call these artist Blues now? I am into Blues.

Give yourself to me can never be wrong that's my favorite part of this song 1:46-1:50 this the only song that I like by Marvin Gaye
Harlem: everyone was in love eh' seems, mom played this almost every day. Sundays: whip cream, pound cake and peaches.
Lots of love from that man. Thats just one of many beautiful songs. Lord he was at his best when he was as murdered. Lionel Ritchie mentioned him in "night shift".. check out Mr. Ritchie. He's the best singer songwriter of all time. Word

Gimme some more Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Eddie Kendricks, and Smokey
Robinson. I'll take all of those three. You know I can take those songs with my
mouse and drag it all on my Mozilla Firefox Folders. I see Ohio Players and Harold
Melvin & Blue Notes on RUclips listing song panels. I'm telling you DJDiscoCatV2
and DJ' PYL-Funk Disco Soul Groove, I'm mean. I'm collecting a lot of albums through
the RUclips computer online. All you have to name a certain tildes that you like, and
it will come up. Lol!
