Marvin Gaye - Live At The Copa Cabana Club 1967
Since the kind folks at SFRP have been augmenting my Marvin collection as of late, I feel I can make an honest run of a mess of his albums and rarities here. I have had a few for years but now have enough to satisfy the collector of this amazing mans music. Apparently Motown stars had been performing regular, sold-out gigs at the Copa and a few released well-received live albums recorded there. Marvin did as well but for some reason (can anyone say Barry Gordy?) his performance was shelved for almost 40 years! Damn. This was just before Marvin had his public problems with Mr. Gordy and decided he needed to have more of a hand in his music and produced 'What's Going On' and 'Let's Get It On' soon after. Oh what a sweet voice and sensitive soul - much too bad about that cocaine habit. We miss you and love you Marvin.

I really appreciate this rare gem.
dopedopedope - thanks for sharing this. I'm a huge Marvin fan and never even heard about this record.
perfection.
the quality just goes on and on.
Thank you for the music.
File won't unzip for me either... I've downloaded it three times now making sure it's not a problem on Rapidshare's end, or an incomplete dl.
same issue here. a 19.4MB that seems to be corrupted :(
same thing too, tried several times. a pity.
