Eternal soul from Marvin Gaye in both its classic form AND in a contemporary light – on a nice little 10-inch single! Side 1 features the original 7-inch single mono versions of "What's Going On" and "God Is Love" – both as mindblowing today as ever – not only just because it documents the incredible moment Marvin moved past the simple love songs of earlier years, but also because he was innovating an amazingly complicated approach to soul music, one that would touch the work of others for years to come. Side 2 features new versions of "What's Going On" with contemporary hip hop soul hero BJ The Chicago Kid and a remix – both of which are surprisingly solid given the historical heft of the originals, but we really gotta hand it to BJ The Chicago Kid for approaching the contemporary remodel/"duet" with the utmost care and respect! 12-inch, Vinyl record

The last bit of sweetness we ever received from Marvin Gaye – a sublime single that crossed over big, but which still retained all the loving soul of the later Motown years! The tune's got a nice little 80s groove undercurrent that somehow stands up even more strongly now than it did when first released – and the single features the full 5 and a half minute version! 12-inch, Vinyl record

Speech does an updated version of/tribute to "What's Going On" that sounds just like Arrested Development. "Impregnated Tidbits Of Dope Hits" has an intro monologue by Dana Bryant. 12-inch, Vinyl record

A great one from Maxwell – smooth, mellow, sexy, and with a great Marvin Gaye kind of groove overall. The cut's presented here in an extended single that features the cut as "The Opus" – and each part is connected together in a slyly soulful way! 12-inch, Vinyl record
