Known throughout the mid- and late ‘60s as “The Prince of Motown”, Marvin Gaye won the hearts of countless fans for his soulful crooning. One of the reasons he became the topselling male vocalist for Tamla/Motown Records was his insistence on having things done exactly the way he wanted. Blessed with a mellifluous tenor and a three-octave vocal range, Gaye was one of the most consistent and enigmatic of the Motown hitmakers. Long unavailable on vinyl, this quintessential collector’s edition includes the legendary singer’s magnificent debut LPfor the Tamla label, The Soulful Moods Of Marvin Gaye, plus 4 bonus tracks, consisting of singles from the same period. The album was recorded over two weeks and was issued on June 8, 1961. It features more jazz than soul, and had a much different sound than Gaye’s subsequent albums. Gaye’s true artistic longing was to make his mark as a smooth crooner. Where many in the Motown stable had to be coached through their all-purpose shows at the Copacabana and other supper clubs, Marvin yearned for this level of artistry and acceptance. This is the material upon which his soul kingdom and unique personal style were built.
