Great Music from a Great Artist! You can feel the energy and the presence of the effort he put down on those songs. A part of himself was surely left on each and every record! An influence in every way, cause we sure love to ball!

Marvin Gaye undoubtedly has one of the most seductive and delicious tones in music. On "Let's Get It On" his voice breeds a carefree level of pleasure's fun and abandon. It's not as poetic as his love/lust manifesto and masterpiece "I Want You". Which in my opinion is the DEFINITIVE chapter (and most indulgent one) in his later "cognac, candles and moonlight" era. Yet this LP has a more wild groove to it (checkout the joy in his voice on 'Come Get to This'). It's like he knew he would whisper his ultimate "come on" with "I Want You". So, when "Let's Get It On" came to him, he wanted to be a bit more straightforward in his lyricism and less "tongue in cheek". It pays off too. This relaxed vibe bubbles over on the title track, 'Keep Gettin' It On' and steamy 'You Sure Love to Ball'. On this re-mastered version of the album, one can hear his "freak-flag" work its vocalized magic in crisp definition. The more subtle tracks like: his dreamy 'If I Should Die Tonight', 'Distant Lover', irresistible 'Please Stay (Once You Go Away)' and most soulful break-up burner 'Just To Keep You Satisfied' explores his tone even further. This album ain't deemed a classic for nothin'.
