Absolute classic from Marvin Gaye as far as the title track goes, and the rest of the album is short and sweet. Can't deny his vocal ability and talent even on his lesser known songs. Would come back to this one again.

Absolute classic, songs different enough to stay interesting but you can still recognize his iconic voice and style. Love it!

Fast schon lustig, wie horny das mitunter klingt.

very funky and so listenable - i tend to prefer more upbeat songs, so this wasn't my absolute favorite, but i can definitely appreciate the musicality. technically an amazing album

Classic 70s r&b that solidified Gaye as a legend.

not a pop fan

Really good for its time

4.3 top tier sheet ruffling material.

I enjoyed listening to this. It's all very smoochy and I didn't think it would really lend itself very well to a cold, grey, damp, Monday morning in January but it's a very calming, rich-sounding record and it quietly swept me away for half an hour while I pretended to understand a spreadsheet. So, thanks Marvin. And what a voice. Going to have to dig out more by him now.

Classic for a reason

iconic

I’ve only ever listened to What’s Going On from Marvin Gaye before and I really liked that album but this album felt like on another level to me, very sexy and very good.

A landmark record in R&B, this highly influential collection of tunes does not cover a wide range of sounds but instead goes deep on the burgeoning funk influence on soul music. Tender, sexual and yearning - the influence can be heard reverberating throughout the genre and pop music in general. After Gaye asked the question "What's Going On?', taking in the state of the world around him, he moved to themes here that are more internal, love and desire. Pretty Crazy to do essentially a reprise of the first song on the album 3 songs later, but I am sure they knew they had something timeless on their hands.

Great album really good instrumentation and filled with funk but holy horny. The reviews earlier described this as sexy and sensual and if sex was an album and I believe it now. I don't inherently have anything wrong and it definitely doesn't take away from the incredible song writing but I do think it gets slightly carried like in the moaning in "you sure love to ball" but it was written from Gaye's stunted sexuality as a result of his father's abuse so I can't judge it too harshly but overall definitely definitely recommend. Standout tracks for me were obviously "let's get it on", "come get to this" and "you sure love to ball"

A sad and horny Marvin Gaye. He just like me forreal

8/10 Favourite: Distant Lover Least Favourite: You Sure Know How to Ball

3 until I got to Let's get it on

7 Lovely marvin

Admittedly, the first time I heard the song 'Let's Get It On' was in Austin Powers. So I've always found the concept of Marvin Gaye to be kinda cheesy. The butt of a joke. But I'm actually really grateful that I spent time with this album and gave it a chance. It's a beautiful and soulful album and I can hear where a lot of modern R&B artists take inspiration from his work. I can see myself listening to it on a slow Sunday morning, maybe cooking breakfast. It's not my usual genre, but that's what I'm here for! 4/5

Like What’s Going On, it maintains both a lyrical and music theme throughout.

Amazing. His second best album.

A classic

I enjoyed this one a lot more than Here, My Dear. The same smooth, funky, soul music, but this time it's more sexy and less resentful divorcee. Also a much more manageable run time to this one.

pretty good!! easy to listen to and enjoyable overall!/

Marvin’s in a mood, too bad it’s Monday morning! This record, classic and smooth as hell, is also, if we’re honest, a little single-minded. I love the voice, the funk, the soul, and need more substance for this to be a personal 5.

Exactly what I expected from Marvin Gaye. Fantastic album. A lot of the songs sounded the same. The moans felt a little unnecessary but other than that.

Adding to my collection

Kanye West sample

Really solid album.

Incredibly produced album. Guy gets it on.

You typ

So far the best Marvin Gaye album

It's a good one, solid throughout. Great songs.

que se puede decir cuando empieza con semejante ted talk de yearning. de ahi para arriba.

Really enjoyed this, compact and good variety in the songs.

Marvin Gaye heeft een van de mooiste stemmen in de muziekgeschiedenis. Muzikaal gezien minder interessant dan what’s going on (die nog komt), maar prachtige instrumentaties. De vioolpartijen zijn zo mooi! Ik heb een paar Marvin gaye multitracks, ook van z’n vroege motown carrière waarbij de muziek nog echt heel erg typisch motown klinkt (hele harde snare op elke tel) en ook daar zijn de vioolpartijen zo ontzettend mooi. Het leuke van de productie uit deze tijd is dat alle instrumenten samen worden opgenomen, waardoor er automatisch een geheel ontstaat (ook heel leuk om op de conga track, de drums te horen bijvoorbeeld). Nu wordt elk instrument afzonderlijk opgenomen waardoor de samenhang gecreëerd moet worden. Ik geloof echt dat wanneer samen wordt opgenomen er een automatische verbinding, ziel en ruimtelijkheid ontstaat. Dit hoor je ook zo goed terug in dit album.

fucking geil album, wat een heerlijke stem (en band!)

The pipes on this man! The groove of the backing band! The arrangements! This album more or less defined the slow, sexy soul ballads that are a centerpiece of R&B to this day. The songs do eventually sound a little bit alike, but given that this was the album that you'd start playing just before you and your partner got busy, it didn't need a lot of variety. All of the vocals (except the backups on "Just to Keep You Satisfied" and presumably the...excited young lady at the start of "You Sure Love to Ball") are Gaye, multitracked to provide an amazing one-man chorus. A titan of its era, even if the title track is the only one you know.

I like the sexuality of it all

Aware of the title track. Heard it for years. Hard to take it seriously because of the way it’s used in TV and movies. And I had no idea there was a reprise track called “keep getting it on”. I need to look this album up. I think “come get to this” is my favorite song on this album. This is a really good album once you get past the cheese that Hollywood layered on.

Ubiquitous horny, romantic and sad staples all together on one album, therapeutic for Gaye and great stuff, but What’s Going On mogs Let’s Get It On entirely. That he was bold enough to name one song Let’s Get It On and another Keep Gettin’ It On, and both are fantastic, is amazing work and You Know How to Ball is absolutely smutty.

king of rnb, felt inappropriate to listen to at 8am LOL

Album was fire. Not particularly something I would listen to daily but nonetheless a good album

Bwam bwam bwam bwam… IVE BEEN REALLY TRYYYING BABY

It's a good listen, not much to say about it

Let’s get it on indeed! 8/10 Favorite tracks- “Let’s Get It On” “Come Get to This” “Distant Lover”

Solid.

First note of the first song... oh yeah... I know I'm in familiar, groovy, pleasant territory. Who doesn't know "Let's Get It On" ??? A solid album that moves you. Too good to have on in the background as the instruments begin to pull you into the movement of their song. Eight songs that blend together and avoid the trap of becoming too repetitive. Top Songs: 1. Please Don't Stay (Once You Go Away) 2. If I Should Die Tonight 3. Distant Lover

It's been a minute since I listened to What's Going On, but this one feels about the same quality. I might slightly prefer Let's Get It On simply because Save the Children was a bit on the nose for my tastes. But don't got much else to say compared to What's Going On. Let's Get It On is also a timeless, lush record that's a delight to listen to. Only downside is there are no inductees for the "Marvin Gaye's Clueless Ass" playlist from this album. Sad, 2/10, would not listen again.

Rating: 8/10 It’s short and very sweet, just a consistent quality experience all the way through. Let’s Get It On is an all timer and I think the best song here but there’s a bunch of solid cuts through the next seven tracks. How many people made albums fully about fuckin before Marvin Gaye?

Love the vibe, Marvin is freaky.

Je ne sais pas comment exprimer ce que j'ai ressenti mais c'était exceptionnel.

Soulful tunes from the R&B master

supa groovy

How can you even contend with the GOAT?

Loved this, smooth and sexy.

Good for a chill night

Soulful, timeless, sexy, sweet

The title track is great, and the subsequent tracks are very good, but not quite at the same level. I didn't like this quite as much as "What's Going On."

Apart from this being one the most sensual albums ever, this is genuinely very good music.

A Motown classic but make the sexiness obvious and naked.

Good one, really nice listening to.

yeah its good

Let's Get It On: I started laughting at the beggining im sorry. Jokes aside this song is so cool very jazzy, soul sexy romantic song love it. ROMANTIC YEARNING YES You sure love to ball: the womens voice help

AMAZING album!!! “Let’s get it on” is just an absolute classic and I loved the song as the opener. Everything felt so smooth and thoughtful and the transitions made it even better. Favorite song: “Come get to this”

Bongos, saxophone, AND a vibraphone. Are you not seduced?

very good, a keeper. 12/22/2025

8/10 This is a hard album to rate for me. I love Marvin Gaye, and there is some really special work on here, with his vocal in particular just shining the whole way through, but this is more of an overall vibe record, rather than being a collection of clearly defined and constructed songs. Some of these tracks are, despite the obvious quality of the performances and production, just a little bit too drifting and jam like to really hold my focus. I guess maybe it's an album designed to be on while you’re busy getting busy, and it certainly fulfils that brief. It’s smooth and sexy, earthy and beautiful. But it’s also music in soft focus, which doesn’t quite connect with me on the same level as his previous record, which is one of my favourites of all time. Every musician plays their part here and the pulse of the album shifts and moves through its duration with a practiced ease. In some respects, this is an excellent album because of that very thing. It’s a singular work. Yes, it’s divided into songs, but you hear little call backs and motifs thrown in here and there from other parts of the record, to the extent that Keep Gettin’ It On refers back to the title track and wanders off in a slightly different direction, and that ‘complete work’ aspect is incredibly appealing as an album prioritising listener. But the slight lack of compositional centre does detract just a little for me. All of that goes to say that, while I do really like this album, to me it almost feels like a record to put on and allow it to just wash over you rather than focusing too closely on it, and that doesn’t elevate it from an album that I really like to one that I love. Let's Get It On - This is one of the smoothest songs ever recorded, isn’t it? So much groove and feel to this one and Marvin giving it so much movement across his vocal range, while always sounding like it’s effortless for him. The instrumentation takes a back seat to the vocal, but it's got so much quality, it’s so tight, and it’s chock full of vibe. Please Don't Stay (Once You Go Away) - It’s more understated, but it’s still smooth and high quality. It’s got a little less range than the title track, but that vibe is so good. The blend of drums and percussion give this a satisfyingly pulsing life. If I Should Die Tonight - Keeping, and perhaps even furthering the laid back vibe of the last track, Marvin emotes so well over the top of a really nice weave of tonality from the rest of the instrumentation. The vibe is just excellent, although it's perhaps a tiny bit limited in range. Keep Gettin' It On - And we get a return of sorts to the opener. There’s some really lovely piano work in there, and the groove is impossible not to move to. It’s a bit of a jam rather than a more traditional song structure, but it’s a quality jam. Come Get To This - This one swings. It’s more vibe, but things are becoming a little bit too drifty for me at this point. It’s got a bit more get up and go than some of the slower jams, so it’s got that toe-tapping quality to it, but it’s perhaps a little unfocused. Distant Lover - And talking of the slower jams, here comes one now. This one is perhaps a little more focused around the distant lover section, but it does still drift along and slide its way through some changes in composition so that they’re almost not noticeable. The playing, production and vocals are worth the price of admission. It’s so smooth and pleasant, but compositionally, I find it a little to loose. You Sure Love To Ball - We get a bit more focus here as the structure seems a bit more well organised by comparison to other tracks on the album. There’s a clearer movement between sections without losing any of the vibe. He does such a good job with the overlapping vocal lines and the vibe continues to be so, so good. Just To Keep You Satisfied - Another very pretty song that drifts along, but has such a loose focus that it struggles to really grab my attention. This one, perhaps more than others, feels like it doesn’t have a central thread that it clings on to, it just floats along. That’s not to say that it’s bad, because it’s a really pleasant listening experience, but it’s also not top tier because of the lack of focus.

This is the first time I've heard the titular unironically outside of memes and honestly that might just go to show the reach the song has and how well it presents its message. This is an outrageously short and tight album, and minus the sudden jump-scare of moaning in the middle this album is incredibly easy to digest and otherwise enjoy. The only issue is I have very little to say. Compared to the other albums that seem otherwise standard this album is a lot tighter and otherwise more enjoyable although that being said those artists aren't Marvin Gaye which certainly sets him aside from most musicians. This album is pretty standard in sound and sexy is concept raised ahead of other albums in the genre of similar quality by Marvin's excellent voice. Best songs: Let's Get It On Worst songs: N/A Rank compared to everything else so far: 21/30 (below Morrison Hotel above Daydream Nation)

An album full of love, passion, and romance! I enjoyed it and found that it was easy to listen to. Nothing hit me as a “wow” or instant favorite but I had a good time. Probably not one I would re-listen to often though I did save “If I Should Die Tonight”.

Infused with sexual energy, I love how side one ends with a reprise of the title track. Let's Get It On/Keep Getting It On, Please Don't Stay (Once You Go Away), You Sure Love to Ball, Just to Keep You Satisfied - best tracks in no particular order

Fabulous

What's Going On was rated as one of the best albums of all time along with Astral Weeks in the early 90s music rags, and that was my introduction to Marvin Gaye and his style of musical suites (with sounds and themes somewhat permiating throughout). This he took much further on Let's Get it on which I sought out thereafter, but the theme here is even more persistent and it can be hard to differentiate the groove and melody of one songs from another. I was too young to be as adept and successful a loverman as Marvin or to have the opportunity, but let's face it a seductive soundtrack is exactly what this suits most, and it is probably the ideal example for this. If you can get over the single theme suite nature, it's is almost perfect. So long as your horny baby.

Beautiful and classic

Really enjoyed this album I think it’s a great follow up to what’s going on. Vibey, sultry, a classic

sexiest album ever - an insane collection of amazing tracks. Definitely more of a genre I like. Would def listen to again

jazz isn’t my favorite but this was great favs: you sure love to ball, keep gettin it on

I mean, c’mon!

most powerful opening to an album EVER?! also comedic genius to take an emotional break and then go straight back into gettin it on, obsessed with that narrative actually

Gotta be one of the coolest to ever do it, and also one of the best. I always forget how amazing Marvin Gaye’s music is, his voice has a timbre that is unmatched, it’s so full of feeling. All the tunes are cool, moody, emotional and sexy almost regularly at the same time. 4.5/5.0 Best Song: Keep Gettin’ It On

You'd be hard pressed to find a sexier album. Marvin Gaye is such an unbelievable songwriter, to the point where he is sort of underrated. He should be spoken about more, saying that i don't think this is his best. Nonetheless it still has some bangers. Obviously lets get it on is the best song

Not to be a perv but I’m genuinely curious how many babies were made to this album. Imagine having an impact on the population like that… wild

Hyvää shittiä. 3,75/5.

I love how jazzy it is, not what I normally listen to but I really like it.

Love this album. Great voice, vibes and mood.

Smooth as a babys bottom

Marvin Gaye is such an iconic artist, certainly top 10 all time for me. His silky smooth vocals combined with his talent for songwriting and influence on the (black) music world makes his early passing such a shame. This album was the start of his more funky works later on and what's a greater way to deal with your stumped sexuality by your father's upbringing than making an album like this. What a legend. I've listened to this album multiple times before and while it obviously isn't as good as 'What's Going On', any song on this album is great for any occasion whether you're relaxed, stressed or feeling frisky of course.

Album review 020 Let’s Get It On by Marvin Gaye (1973) Rating 4/5 Marvin’s here and he’s all about the get-down, wooo-baaaaby. He’s gonna love you… and he’s gonna make sweeet, sweeet love wit’ you, yeahhh. It’s time to turn the lights down low, and, and, and, and… ooh-wooo-oooooh…

Æ hørte ikke så veldig nøye etter, men det va gøy nok, det.

Despite loving some other Gaye albums, I’d only ever heard the title track on this one before now. Solid overall, not as good as What’s Going On? I did really like You Sure Love to Ball though

What an album. Starting off with the classic “Let’s get it on” and only getting more sensuous as it goes. Smooth R and B for all occasions. Rated 426 on Rolling Stones top 500 albums. Agreed. Going to add a decimal to the star system. 3.8 stars.

3% chance of pregnancy upon finishing this album.

Got me some Marvin! I already had this album on CD, and it's just one love groove all the way through - the title track being the masterpiece and one of the sexiest songs ever recorded. The whole album really is a continuation of that, it's essentially background music to have sex to. Maybe that's why it's only 30 minutes long. It's sweet singing, pianos and saxophone and occasional female panting. Marvin Gaye was REALLY fucking into having sex at this point in his life. Only one great song here and whilst it's probably usually ranked as his #2 album, there may be other better ones with more high points than this. Look, it's really nice throughout, a little short of the full marks, but is definitely up there as a great example of the genre. I just can't rate it the same as the very different 'What's Going On'.

Better than Coldplay

The song is iconic but this album is great. It all has feeling and emotion and sets the mood. I love "Keep Getting It On" as an accompaniment to its famous companion song along with "If I Should Die Tonight".

Short and astounding, an incredible showcase of soul and sexy music. His voice makes it feel personal, loving and filled with intention. No notes, all excellent.

A primeira música já me pegou totalmente desprevenido. Nunca soube o nome, e descobrir foi uma boa surpresa. "Come Get To This" usa um sample ridículo de bateria eletrônica barata que estragou a música. Fora isso, o álbum é todo consistente. Esse cara definitivamente tem um vozerão. Não é um estilo de música que gosto muito, mas a qualidade deve ser reconhecida. Melhor do álbum: "Let's Get It On". Pior do álbum: "Come Get To This".

Sonoridade extremamente agradável e arranjos muito bons. Adorei como keep gettin it on reseta a vibe do album conversando com a música 1. Marvin Gaye foi muito foda!

than fifty years after it's release Marin Gaye is still making sure people just Get It On. A rare album about sex, that actually achieves steaminess.

7/10… motown / soul / *1973

A soul masterpiece with touch of funk and some jazz elements. This is a timeless classic!

Marvin Gaye is a legend of several kinds of music but I'll say, primarily, R&B and soul. I'm an utter novice at both, so let's just say I'm working on better understanding and feeling the grooves he worked with. The title track is a cross-genre classic though. The rest of the record is smooth, infectious and joyful. I think what fails to land for me with R&B is that smoothness often becomes slowness, which bores be. Sexiness becomes a sleepiness (or sometimes a vague threatening-ness). This is none of that: it is interesting, vital -- Gaye pleads with the listener. Anyway, 4/5 and it's not even my jam.

Top notch Marvin Gaye.

I wish it was longer. The arrangements are incredible on every single song and the musicianship is great, but the star is definitely Marvin Gaye’s voice. It’s so passionate, but it can be so gentle when he needs it to be. It’s a shame this album is only 30 minutes. 4/5

Whats going on — one of my favorites

Sets a standard for Rhythm and Blues that few other artists can even approach. Influential in that it opened the door to straight talk about sex in pop music. That might have had some unfortunate outcomes (pop lyrics that are basically porn), but the influence is undeniable. I was about to give this a 5, but then changed my mind because some of lesser known tracks sound the same as the better known tracks. It’s a good sound, but there’s not a lot of diversity on this album. A 4.

Hell fuckin yes

Der Sound, den man sich bei Marvin Gaye vorstellt. Ruhig, sexuell geprägt. 4/5

The Let’s Get It On theme permeates the entire album which is, definitely, part of its allure. Gotta love Marvin’s beautiful voice, his soul, songwriting and great mastery of the studio. I especially enjoyed listening to the great bass work of James Jamerson on this recording.

Sure yeah, it's the sex album; I mean, what can you say, it's even got Let's Get It On *twice*. But what fewer people know, is that it's actually also the "lying in bed under a warm blanket with your partner, dozing off while dreaming of all the things you've yet to together" album.

I'm pregnant now Best Song: Let's Get it On Rating: 8/10 Stars: 4

So full of emotion. Gets you in the mood.

Lost in the melodies. Great stuff..

Feeling a little dirty after that.

im pregnant

This is just the most vibes album ever made isn’t it

this album has the exact sound i would expect from a marvin gaye record of the 1970s, the title track is iconic and the rest of the album is also consistently enjoyable

Even this supposed festival-of-horniness album is a window on the troubled life of Marvin. That world famous invitation to get carnal sounds, on closer inspection, like a beautifully framed self-justification that love and sex are wonderful despite what he’d been brought up to believe. Such a shame that so much of the greatest art is born of pain. Anyway I'll stick to the wonderful art itself. The focus is indeed love and sex and how they work well together, but also apart. And the album sounds just like that. I can hardly think of a mis-step in the arrangements or production, nor of course the musicianship (James Jamerson is obviously worth a mention but that is a disservice to every other player here) The music is rarely as upbeat as the title track, but it’s a massage for the brain and soul throughout. Then on top of all that add one of the most beautiful voices the world has known. Sounds like 5 stars…and maybe it should be, but I have a few minor gripes: Firstly, it’s only 8 tracks and just over half an hour and that even includes a 3+min reprise of the title track. Secondly, and I know it’s unfair to make this comparison, but it doesn’t quite reach the high bar he had set with its predecessor What’s Going On. Finally, I'm REALLY tight with maximum scores, so scandalously this is reduced to a 4⭐️

When I think about Smooth Soul, I think of Marvin.

This album is pretty good. It's a very easy listening, but yet really interesting too. I've liked it a lot, even though the last songs started to feel a little less interesting for me.

This is a man who loves getting it on and its hard to argue with his philosophy

A really great soul record from front to back. It's effortlessly cool and sexy, and Marvin Gaye's vocals just sound amazing.

Kinda glad it starts with the big obvious hit, then you get to enjoy all he has to have without the weight of something else lurking. Consistent throughout are these groovy and intimate movements in his music and it's all so interesting. Let's Get it On is an obvious hit, but his other songs hold their own and give this album life. If you need it for mood setting this would definitely deliver if that's what you're going for

I really like this album. Some songs are a bit too much smooooth soul for me but overall it's great.

Amazing

MARVIN 4.1/5

The first few seconds will have you reconsidering listening to this at work

The opening sounds of this album are so tied to the act which the song and album title describes that when I played it not through my bluetooth headphones I was embarrassed and had to look around to see if anyone heard.

Soul in its purest form

I will be fully honest. I’ve never quite understood the amount of love this record receives. I love Gaye’s prior release: the seminal concept album “What’s Going On”. That record is quite literally one of the greatest records of all time and also as an added bonus directly inspired Stevie Won’s artistic expansion during the 70s so that album gets flowers for that. Now to be clear this is not a bad record, it’s very good in that it’s generally good and there’s next to nothing “wrong” with this album but honestly I just don’t fully get it. The opening title track is the embodiment of “romantic soul song” and is an excellent track. “Please Don’t Stay” is also quite good. However the following two tracks on side two are not favorites of mine as they both fall into that slow sound and formula that this album employs for virtually its whole run. The second side opens with my favorite track on the record “Come Get To This” a wonderful song that continues the themes of sexual healing found throughout this record. However I won’t lie the remaining three tracks aren’t favorites of mine. Again, I will make clear this is a good album and a pretty damn good one too but the album feels a little tiring falling into the same formula of slow soul songs that feel repetitive lyrically, outside of a few standouts this album wasn’t my favorite Gaye album

It’s Marvin what’s not to like.

Formative. Sexy. Brilliant.

I wonder how many people are here because of this album. Iconic opening. Feels like a 3 overall, but first track is so iconic, it has to bump it up a little.

Much better than Gaye's post divorce concept album, but still not enough to get a five. A solid four.

A classic. Now my whole office is in the mood....

Strong themes, great songwriting, what else is there to say?

Love me some Marvin Gaye. Not as good as what's going on, but still wonderful. 8/10

Amazing album, full of smooth soul

I know there's a double meaning in Keep Gettin' It On, but evoking Jesus's name when saying people need to start getting it on was an awkward choice for the more likely interpretation of the song. This album was way more enjoyable than the other one, really nice jazzy soul. I may not listen to this again, but I liked it

Sadly, I had a great review of this that I didn't save. I continue to think that it's too bad Marvin Gaye is pgeonholed into being "The Sex song guy", but this album is genuinely really inescapably sexy ("What's Going On" is the album that should lead to him having a more nuanced image) Fun story, I walked into my office and immediately started playing this album before making sure my headphones were connected. My officemate fortunately had headphones on (and might not have the cultural context to be offended) but it was almost super embarrassing. Anyway, this is a great album. Good work Marvin. Maybe just a touch more variety next time, but at 31 minutes you can get away with a lot.

This album is smooth as hell and I was deeply concerned with listening to it in the office lest anyone judge me for listening to it. I get why it is understood to be sexy (and it's certainly better than the other sex song we've had (here's looking at you Fred)). With that said, I think my 4-star rating is mostly an acknowledgement of its cultural significance. That's enough for me to round this 3.5 stars up to 4.

OMG. Love this. The perfect sound for a relaxing Sunday in autumn London. Yes, we‘re all sensitive people with so much to give. — How sweet and wonderful life can be!

yeah, i could get pregnant to this

My guy really went from What’s Going On to this horny shit in 2 years. Slaps

How can you not enjoy this album?

Great record, but mood wise not where I’m at this week.

An R&B and Soul standard. Over 50 years later and that hasn't changed at all. Just as vital now as it was when it came out in 1973. Favorites: "Let's Get It On", "Keep Gettin' It On", "Come Get To This", and "Just To Keep You Satisfied"

So good. 8/10

Great, but not his greatest.

I had something pre-written but I didn't save it right so I'll be briefer. Historically important album, Marvin Gaye is a legend although I prefer What's Going On and his more socially conscious stuff. I just prefer soul music sung by women over men as a personal preference.

A masterclass in being smooth.

marvin gay😼

This causes me immense psychic trauma as a man who is simultaneously afraid of intimacy and obsessed with James Jamerson’s basslines.

Sexy time

Like his political songs more, but still great stuff

Title song is the song you think of when someone tries to imitate a porn soundtrack with a "bow chikka bow wow" wah wah sound.... Its sensual, dirty, horny, all them things. lay back and get your post listen cigarette ready, you'll need it.

I think I liked this one more than the 80s album Maybe a 4?

Klassiker! Riktigt mysig tända ljus middag vibe! Köp

Classic gettin it on song album.

this man is amazing! love distant lover!!

So so good and so so sexy, as expected

Great work of art , definitely gonna revisit this one

classic

Very smooth!

Masterclass complète.

Just vibes

It's good isn't it? Not quite as good as What's Going On, for my money but, still ....

good but not What’s Going On level

Best Song: Let's Get it On This is a good album. It is pretty short and almost feels like an EP. The title track is its highlight, after that it kind of all sounds like one long song. 4/5.

Pretty good!

Some cool soul, at the start of the album I get another one of those moments where I recognise a melody but never known where it came from until now. Anyway yeah liked this one. 4 stars

I may be reading a bit too much into this, but if I’m picking up on the signals correctly, I think Marvin is interested in getting it on.

pretty good

I need to wait for an evening with an S.O. to listen to this all the way through. It honestly feels ridiculous listening on my own or while working. But that means it nails what it's trying to do.

I'm loving Marvin Gaye. However, I still think that his other album was better than this one.

I heard D'Angelo a little while ago, if that was baby making music, this will rock your world. We start off with the very well known title track, and we can expect that energy all throughout. Well composed, well performed, I would snag the record. I could've given it another listen to start enjoying those subtle background details. 4/5

Beautiful 70s soul, funk. Will never be my genre. Fantastic vocals.

Moins bien que What s going on mais banger quand même

I love this album about as much as I love this album cover. I really like the album cover.

Wonderful album about making love. Specifically getting it on. Instrumentals are lush and perfect, vocal performances are tender and perfect. Great listen for the right mood and time. 3.85/5

This is wonderful. So much packed into just over 30 minutes. Really wonderful.

Love Marvin Gaye, and this albums great. Only wish it was a little bit longer

Sensual soul

Great, more to the artist than I thought.

Be careful with this album. I listened to it while at the grocery store, and now I’m pregnant. And I’m a guy, so…

Beautiful soul music!!! Loved it

A fun little listen. Because “Let’s Get It On” is so well known, it’s a little comical to hear it as track 1. However, it really set the tone for an album that explores love and intimacy on both physical and emotional levels. The influence is obvious- I was constantly reminded of Prince and Thundercat during this listen

It's a great album. But musically too close to "What's going on". Except the 2 last songs - which I enjoyed the most (except the women's moaning - I never understand why someone would add this)

The title track is a classic, and his voice is great. 4 stars

A classic. I really like his sound.

"Marvin, Marvin, it's Chuck. Your cousin, Chuck Gaye. You know that sexy ass sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this!" *Holds out phone as Marty slides up to the mic. Great stuff. Great voice. He finds his way into your soul and stays with you the entire album. The titular track will make the playlist of course.

I mean, for what this is, it's excellent.

sehr schön!, bei arte gibt es gerade die miniserie small axe, daran musste ich denken :) https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/120058-002-A/small-axe-2-5/ e Let’s Get It On! "Außerdem führt dieses Lied die Liste der besten Lieder für ein romantisches Abendessen an. Der Übernachtungsgast, der diesen dezenten Hinweis nicht versteht, kann wohl getrost als uninteressiert aussortiert werden." https://shorturl.at/yaO3U ;) c

Actually nice listen. Classic.

A little too one note for my tastes, but there is no denying the sheer force of nature that is a Marvin Gaye song.

smooth, sexy and emotional. Just how i like it

This is a great album, all bangers. Incredible vibes.

SOUL. Another all-time soul classic from one of the goats, this time bringing us essential babymaking jams.

my clothes flew off as soon as I hit play. I can't believe this album starts with THE babymaking song I will say, it's great when you get an album that really opens your eyes to where modern artists get their inspirations. I swear I could hear some Anderson .Paak on some of these songs. Standouts: Let's Get It On • If I Should Die Tonight • Keep Gettin' It On

man when that first note hits you just know you're in for a great one

I prefer (and assume we'll see?) What's Going On... but this is still a great album.

I've already listened to his album (8). The prime years of Marvin Gaye.

amazing and soulful

Soulful and smooth, his vocals are unbelievable, this is very much an easy listen album

A classic.

Oh yeah, now this is the Marvin we love!

This guy does not know how to make bad music.

Excellent album, though the saxophone solos do get a bit much for me at some point

Music for making babies

very good shit.

Ahhh, lets get it on...

I could feel the 70s shag carpet as I listened to this album. I will never be as smooth or sexy as Marvin Gaye but this album let's me pretend I am.

Surprisingly short! There's a joke in there somewhere...

This album was a great old school r & b album by one of the greats! Very very much what I think of when. I think music for getting it on too haha 😂 but over all good album

not as good as What's Going On but still great. What a voice. I got pregnant listening to it.

A controversial album due to the almost illegal levels of sexiness. Initial measurements with a standard Sex-O-Meter™ immediately pegged the needle, unbelievably more than a full Barry White. Continued measuring caused the meter to explode. Caution is advised while listening. Damn. Excellent album by an amazing artist.

Groovy and brief. 4/5

Zalige stem, goeie band en arrangementen. Mss wat veel van hetzelfde. Toch 4 sterren

Always fun

Música que você escuta na hora do boombayah

Heard of them, never listened to them. It’s ok

romantical marvin gaye

Okay yeah this was sexy, almost cartoonishly so at some points

I'd like to thank this list for helping me discover my love for Soul and Motown Now I can go nick all me Nana's CDs lol

I am somewhat familiar with Marvin Gaye, though the songs I know are not on this album. The only song I knew from this album was Let’s Get It On.

Otro disco que pensé que ya habia registrado acá. Como ya han dicho, este disco es sexo hecho música y no hay nada de malo en eso.

Sweet soul music.

The frustration with Gaye's album is how singles-focused they are -- when they're good, they're GOOD

If sex were music, it would be Marvin Gaye. This is probably him at his sexiest. Also the title track is like a jumpscare if you forget that it's on this album. Solid album, definitely worth a listen.

A good soul record. The title track is legendary but I'm always fond of its sequel that most people don't know. I really like this one. Maybe my favorite Marvin Gaye so far.

Loved it

Perfect album!

I prefer protest Marvin Gaye to sexy Marvin Gaye, But this was a relaxing listen. After having sung all of those songs, I really hope that he did get it on and it was worth it.

To state the obvious Marvin Gaye has a beautiful voice. Hard not to like and a great Sunday album. Only slight reservations about being a bit one pace with 2 tracks ostensibly the same on 30 mins. What a nice sound though. Low 4/5 (7/10)

Play anyone this album and the descriptive word that's likely to come to their head first is "smooth." Damn this is a smooth record. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone with a pulse who finds it objectionable. Marvin Gaye sounds deeply in love and out of that made one of the all time most romantic LPs of all time. Its a shock when it ends after only 30 minutes but I admire Gaye not stretching beyond the hits.

Its a solid to high 4 for me, could have been higher if it covered a bit more ground I find it a bit one note, even though i do enjoy the one very well done note

Not sure why all the hate for this, it’s a landmark album for both funk and soul and explores some complex themes about sex, love and longing, particularly given the context of Marvin’s upbringing and abuse. On the surface, there’s an extremely sensual sound that no doubt influenced more modern R&B, but whereas that took it at face value, running with the sound alone, Marvin’s sincere lyrics give the all important balance and depth that much of that genre lacks. It was also a controversial album given the subject matter and was deemed as a huge risk for Motown to even release it but it gained both critical and commercial success and showed a markedly different side to Marvin following his much more well known and politically themed album _What’s Going On_

Look the guy knew what he wanted

Surprisingly short album but enjoyed & researched about Marvin with Tierney

I enjoyed this album a lot! Classic tracks, well produced. Been getting a few soul records in a row this week, and I think Isaac Haye's Hot Buttered Soul is a better overall album, but Marvin is always great

Not my typical genre but the quality of this album shines through. Hard not to like it.

4.5 stars. The album is well put together. Marvin Gaye is a fantastic artist.

#DÍA 22: 1001 Discos Que Hay Que Escuchar Antes De Morir (English Translation Below) En segundo lugar, un lento y romántico LP del mismísimo Marvin Gaye. De esta leyenda del Soul sólo había escuchado su aclamado What’s Going On, un albumazo en toda regla de Soul Progresivo. Este es su posterior LP y presenta un estilo más directo de Smooth Soul, con perfectos grooves sensuales para bailar con mi amada. Como cantante, Gaye es todo lo que se puede pedir, tenía un rango sublime y una capacidad expresiva que le llevaba de la máxima suavidad a una desgarradora pasión en cuestión de segundos. Por otro lado, no es un proyecto tan ambicioso instrumentalmente como lo es What´s Going On, pero tampoco es lo que necesita, pues son canciones que piden un acompañamiento en su punto y que permita moverse como les salga del cuerpo a los oyentes. El tema de apertura es legendario y creo que prácticamente todo el mundo ha escuchado la intro, no es de extrañar que se haya usado tanto para memes, Don Peake hizo que la guitarra pareciese ligar con nosotros… Es una canción apasionada como poco y un clásico innegable. El resto de la lista de canciones no considero que lleguen al nivel, pero no deben dejarse de lado. Por ejemplo, la letra y la voz de Gaye en If I Should Die Tonight son realmente poderosas y crean una situación cinematográfica, algo que ocurre más de una vez en el LP, como en la triste pero realista canción de clausura: Just To Keep You Satisfied. Pienso que fue un error de mi parte escucharlo de día, considero que son todo canciones que pegarían más fuerte mirando melancólico por la ventana en una noche lluviosa… Pero no tenía otro momento y es verano, no llueve ni patrás. Fuera de bromas el álbum, aunque corto, termina siendo algo monótono, no tiene la versatilidad de su predecesor y no hay tantos momentos memorables al menos tras una primera escucha. Aún así, es un más que sólido disco para Gaye que muestra en nuestras narices su talentazo como cantante. Favoritas: Let’s Get It On, If I Should Die Tonight, Come Get To This, Just To Keep You Satisfied Menos favorita: Distant Lover #DAY 22: 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die Secondly, a slow and romantic LP from none other than Marvin Gaye himself. From this soul legend I had only heard his acclaimed What’s Going On, a full-on masterpiece of progressive soul. This is his follow-up LP, and it presents a more straightforward smooth soul style, with perfect sensual grooves for dancing with my beloved. As a singer, Gaye is everything one could ask for — he had a sublime range and an expressive ability that could take him from the utmost softness to raw, heart-wrenching passion in a matter of seconds. On the other hand, it’s not as ambitious instrumentally as What’s Going On, but that’s not what it needs to be, since these are songs that call for just the right accompaniment and allow listeners to move however their bodies feel like moving. The opening track is legendary, and I think practically everyone has heard its intro — no wonder it’s been used so much in memes. Don Peake made the guitar sound as if it were flirting with us… It’s nothing short of a passionate song and an undeniable classic. I don’t think the rest of the tracklist reaches that level, but it shouldn’t be overlooked either. For example, Gaye’s lyrics and vocals on If I Should Die Tonight are truly powerful and create a cinematic scene — something that happens more than once on the LP, such as in the sad yet realistic closing track: Just To Keep You Satisfied. I think it was a mistake on my part to listen to it during the day — I feel these are all songs that would hit harder while staring romantically out the window on a rainy night… But I had no other time, and it’s summer, so it’s not raining at all. Jokes aside, the album, though short, ends up feeling somewhat monotonous; it doesn’t have the versatility of its predecessor, and there aren’t as many memorable moments, at least after a first listen. Even so, it’s a more than solid record for Gaye that puts his immense talent as a singer right in front of our eyes. Favorites: Let’s Get It On, If I Should Die Tonight, Come Get To This, Just To Keep You Satisfied Least favorite: Distant Lover

Smoooooth

Marvelous stuff from Mr. Gaye.

One of his best albums! Banger songs, get you groooovvvvyyyyyy.

The rhythm section!

top notch.

There aren’t any profound ideas here, I guess. But when an album is this velvety, who needs profundity?

Feels like I've picked up this whole album by cultural osmosis. Good album! Kanye sample jumpscare on Distant Lover. Overall, 4/5

Album art:2

Smooth as silk

Mercy mercy me I need a cigarette after that. Let's Get It On has the wonderful quality of having a beat that makes for steady, purposeful hip thrusting.

Get it on, the quintessential fuck song, puts the album at a 3 by itself (plus have a sequel that's message is "keep fuckin'", pure genius). But I really should say making love, because although the topic is base, Marvin's sultry, emotional voice caresses the topic and the musical composition is such vulvety perfection.

mais calmo que o what’s going on. um pouco menos interessante. mas muito bom, sem duvidas

My favorite one so far! Love Marvin Gaye and will definitely listen to songs from this album again!

Probably too horny to be listening to at 6am at work, but banger after banger still!

Always felt he is overrated but I was wrong tried to listen to most albums and its good but nothing that made my life change. This album specifically has a special groove that lasts the whole album with a vibe thats tough to equal. I dont love the falsetos yet feel this is a top album for that genere

sexy time activated (it's really 4,5 stars)

Freaky mfer

Are you kidding! Let's Get it On. First note grabbed my full attention as it should. Soulful Marvin. Loved it.

Marvin Gaye has really grown as an artist for me through this list. His second album on the list for me, and this is a solid one, though perhaps not absolute stellar. Though 'Let's Get It On' might be one of the most well known and overplayed love songs (along a few other songs from Marvin), it's still one hell of a tune. And his singing really makes it shine! The other songs on the album don't stand out as much, but I have to say I really enjoyed most of them. 'If I Should Die Tonight' for example has such a good melancholic chord progression that just works great with the guitars and Marvin's singing. Though lacking of hits, and certainly an album that lyrically feels quite "thirsty", I liked this a lot. Perhaps not an album that I will come back to instantly or remember as a particularly good one, but I enjoyed listening to it a whole lot more than a many other albums on this list. Think I will let that be the decider for the album rating!

The album is good, but it’s hard to ignore the over saturated love R&B ballads on it. While they sound great (it is MARVIN GAYE), some songs can feel way too overly cheesy and cringey. Other than that, this is a good record.

One of the sexiest and smoothes albums Ive ever listened to.

you hear let’s get it on and it’s great and you wonder if he can keep it up, if he has the stamina to last. he does, and it’s good, but it’s all basically the same song.

This is one of the sexiest albums I've ever listened to.

This is soul at its most seductive. Marvin Gaye turns desire into poetry, layering smooth vocals over lush, sensual grooves. It’s a masterclass in restraint and emotion, where every note feels purposeful. Not just a slow jam album — it’s a deeply human record, equal parts vulnerable and confident.

Brilliant soul album

Lugnt o skönt

I really liked the album and was impressed with the vocals and jazziness.

Nice album! 4/5

I like it. Not sure I will ever listen to it again.

Первая песня классная, расслабляет, качает. Ну нормик, но что за стоны вначале одной из песен?

Love Marvin Gaye. However, this one isn't quite as good as What's Going On? Still solid though. 3.5/5

Horniest album so far - and I have listened to 2 Prince albums

I’m pretty sure a couple of people were conceived because of this album. Just a hunch. Weirdly enough, my man problem with this album is that it’s too, uhm, sexy. As someone who really enjoyed What’s Going On, this one felt less smooth and more groovy. Honestly, at times, this really felt like bedroom music, which makes causal listening feel awkward. God forbid you don’t listen to this while doing it and instead driving home from work. The Gowanus Expressway doesn’t need to hear that woman on You Sure Like To Ball moan. Outside that though, it’s still Marvin Gaye. When Marvin hits, he hits and sets the standard for r&b to come. It’s not as close to perfection as What’s Going On for me, but this one still raises to the occasion… Yeah, that’s a bad joke. Favorite track: Let’s Get It On Other hits: Come Get To This, If I Should Die Tonight, Distant Lover, You Sure Love To Ball

Easy, comfortable music. Nice and slow and sultry.

För typ 6 år sen så spelades lets get it on när jag gick in i ett rum en gång och jag tyckte det var så bra intro-bakgrundsmusik så efter det satte jag den låten på repeat när jag gick hemifrån så jag alltid skulle komma hem med samma vibe och det höll på i typ en månad eller två kanske

Not much to say about this one other than it’s essential for all fans of soul/r&b.

The OG Baby Maker. The Fire Starter. The Bed Rocker. The Potato Masher. The Bo Jangler. The Clam Shucker. The Meatball Grinder. The Floor Creaker. The Muffin Muncher. The Taffy Puller. The Tongue Twister! I once saw a stat that between the years of 1973-1975, 1 out of every 8 children was conceived to this album. Get freaky, grandma!
