The ONLY Live Performance Of Marvin Gaye's Groundbreaking Album!
Newly Mixed & On Vinyl For The First Time!
Pressed at Quality Record Pressings!

It's "Marvin Gaye Day" in Washington, D.C., and history is made at the recently-opened Kennedy Center when Marvin performs for the first time in years. Experience the once-in-a-lifetime thrill of his 1972 performance of the groundbreaking album, What's Going On. For decades this extraordinary recording sat on the shelves. Now, here it is, newly mixed, freshly released and available on vinyl for the first time.

What's Going On Live has been newly mixed by John Morales at M+M Mix Studios and mastered by Alex Abrash at AA Mastering. The package includes rare images from Gaye's performance as well as new liner notes by his biographer, David Ritz, who describes it as "an invaluable and vibrant historical document marking a milestone in the artist's career."

The album includes the only known live recordings of Gaye performing four songs: "That's The Way Love Is" and "You" (which opened the Washington concert as part of a meditative 13-minute medley), "Right On" and "Wholy Holy". A delay in switching reel-to-reel tapes during the concert meant that his performance of the What's Going On hit "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)" was not successfully recorded.
