Marvin Gaye – What's Going On | 2xLP (50th Anniversary Edition)

Widely considered one of the greatest albums ever recorded. Marvin Gaye's 1971 Motown/Tamla Records album What's Going On is a landmark soul and R&B concept record that weaves themes of war, poverty, environmental destruction, and spiritual longing into a seamless, deeply moving musical statement — "What's Going On," "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)," "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)," "Save the Children," and "Flyin' High (In the Friendly Sky)" are standout tracks on an album that changed the course of popular music and remains as urgent and relevant today as the day it was released. This 50th Anniversary Edition includes the original album plus alternate mixes, stripped versions, and demo recordings across two records.
