Amazon.co.uk Review:
Balancing raw power with shades of vulnerability, Gaye rose to the top of Motown's roster without the benefit of a supporting vocal group. Whether singing love songs or social commentary, Gaye's voice displays an earnestness and sincerity that are a soul singer's most potent weapons. Among these 47 hits are his memorable duets with Mary Wells, Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell along with Motown staples such as 'Can I Get a Witness', 'How Sweet It Is', 'Ain't That Peculiar' and 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine'. This set also covers socially conscious 1970s originals such as 'What's Going On', 'Mercy, Mercy Me' and 'Inner City Blues'. Only his last hit, 'Sexual Healing', is left out. --Marc Greilsamer
