His "production line" hits from 1962 to 1970 prove Marvin was as versatile an artist at Motown as any of his labelmates, and more than some. William Stevenson, Berry Gordy, HDH, Smokey Robinson and Norman Whitfield, all saw their compositions and productions taken high up the charts by Marvin, bolstering his immortality and theirs too. Marvin could be reluctant about getting into the studio, but once there he'd work till next afternoon's sun getting it right.
First US import I ever bought. Still survives to this day in my collection with the sleeve dated March 1st 1965. Marv's "second biggest mistake" was not releasing this tune as a single in the UK. How Sweet It Is... played substitute.
God this song has been covered by everybody!

I've been listening to the Band's version of this for a few years ever since I saw the Last Waltz. About time I hear this! thanks.
