Vinyl - Marvin Gaye - Midnight Love

This classic recording ‘Midnight Love’ is Gaye’s final great gift to us. Marvin had copied the beat from the European New Wave scene in his Belgian exile of the coastal town Oostende, and yet it became something completely new under his hands. On this anniversary edition of ‘Midnight Love’ Gaye takes cues from the eccentric whims of Rick James, Cameo, and Prince for “Midnight Lady,” an elastic funk ode to the luxurious nightlife, those vivacious Super Freaks, and sexual debauchery. On “Third World Girl” He shows his love to the then recently-departed Bob Marley weaving together faux-reggae rhythms with glitzy synth-pop touches. ‘Midnight Love’ is a cresting wave in the ocean of masterpieces from a legendary master of soul.
