Marvin
Gaye: What's Going On and the Last Days of the Motown Sound
by Ben Edmunds, Ben Edmonds
Book Description Arguably the greatest soul album ever made, What's
Going On established Motown star Marvin Gaye as a unique and maverick musical
talent. His determination and vision resulted in inspirational and pioneering
works that, in the era of Vietnam and the civil rights protests, challenged
America to take a long hard look at itself. Ben Edmonds examines in detail
the making of this legendary work -- initially rejected by Motown's quality-control
department -- interviewing many of the artists and record company employees
closest to the singer, to arrive at a deeper understanding of what the
album means. It is, without question, one of the greatest stories ever
told.
