MARVIN GAYE IN THE GROOVE

TAMLA RECORDS 1968                                       TS 285


I Heard It Through the Grapevine is the ninth solo studio album
 by soul musician Marvin Gaye, released on August 26, 1968 on 
the Motown-subsidiary label Tamla Records. Originally released
 as In the Groove, it was the first solo studio album Gaye released 
in two years, in which during that interim, the singer had emerged 
as a successful duet partner with female R&B singers such as 
Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell. The album and its title track are
considered both as Gaye's commercial breakthrough.
