Originally issued in 1969, this great album has Marvin crooning to some of the best loved and best known standards and torch songs of the day. And, boy, does that voice ever sparkle!!! Under the brilliant production and supervision of the Norman Whitfield, and including the work of no less than four of Tamla’s in-house arrangers, Marvin’s voice never before - or again - sounded so lush, rich and luxurious. This was Marvin’s final studio album prior to "What’s going on" , his critically acclaimed 1971 masterpiece. In many ways, this was the last of the great 1960’s albums he recorded for Tamla/Motown and one of his best. The songs include: Gonna give her all the love I’ve got - Yesterday - Groovin’ - I wish it would rain - That’ sthe way love is - How can I forget - Abraham, Martin and John - Gonna keep on tryin’ till I win your love - Cloud Nine - Don’t you miss me a little bit baby? - So long; Finding a still sealed original copy?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.

·       CONDITION:

 

·       RECORD

 

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

 

(a)          THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records .

 

(b)          The record is believed to come in its original stock inner sleeve.

 

(c)           The record is  apparently  pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

 

(d)          Stock (commercially released) mono copies of this album are NOT known to exist.

 

(e)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
