I did not know that Marvins dad was a cross dresser and a preacher? No wonder Marvin was confused and I think they are saying that Marvin walked away from God? Does anyone know the story?

I was at Marvin Gaye's last live performance in Los Angeles before his father killed him, so sad.

Melt my butter, Barry White's music then and now. Timeless.

Marvin Gaye was another to make me just melt. The anniversary date for his death is coming up since I believe his Dad shot him on Father's Day. What a tragedy but his music will never die.

I think it happened on April Fools day, that's my sons birthday and I remember hearing about it during his party....
