Marvin Gaye, the Master (1961-1984) (+ 4 CD)

A fitting tribute to the most spellbinding of Motown artists, The Master is an amazing and detailed overview of life and career of Marvin Gaye. From his first hits as a romantic lead, Stubborn Kind of Fellow and Hitch Hike to his final hit, Sexual Healing, The Master follows Gaye as the moves from being an interpreter of simple love songs to being a troubled eco-cosmic warrior and finally to being the love man's love man, singing songs of sex, religion and passion in equal measure.

Steeped in soul and, later, saturated in funk, Gaye's work is often stimulating and occasionally disquieting, and is presented delightfully on this lavish four-CD book with sumptuous illustrations and detailed annotation.
