About this item

Marvin Gaye always dreamed of being a smooth crooner, “sitting on a stool, possibly behind a piano,” delivering velvety songs like Nat King Cole. But Motown had other plans. Pushed between raw R&B and polished pop, Gaye fought to find his own voice, eventually rising to become one of the greatest soul singers in history. "Collected" features his iconic songs, his hits and his duets with Mary Wells, Tammi Terrell, Kim Weston and Diana Ross.
