"He was always a personality, albeit one forced to go with the flow. This collection shows just how well the machine worked for him until he tired of it ... The next move was What's Going On and the supposed changing of the times (though Marv would soon cut a duet LP with Diana Ross). Don't ignore what went before; here are some names: Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong, Tammi Terrell, Kim Weston, Ashford & Simpson, Smokey Robinson, Lamont Dozier, Clarence Paul... oh, and Marvin Gaye. If they're not top notch, who is?".
