Marvin Gaye & TT - Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing [Alt ]

[jseph1234567890]

Another question Andy...At the beginning is that you saying "shut up" just before the Engineer gives the count or is that off the recording?

[jseph1234567890]

If you listen at 1:59 Tammi says "Ah Marvin"...I am surprised they weren't engaged...At the time of her passing she was engaged to a doctor

[jseph1234567890]

THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD!

[mariewilder]

Love this version. Great job!!

[simon4186]

We all must pass away, but it's always truly a shame. RIP Nick Ashford. I LOVE MOTOWN!

[jseph1234567890]

@simon4186 Yes Nick wrote this for his beautiful wife Valerie.. I got a chance to meet in Bridgeport, CT when I worked in a convience store downtown and he was very cool..Be blessed Nick!

[dfriend111]

listen to that bass line!!

[virgosquad]

There have been so so many great duets in music, but Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell are king and queen, if not KING and QUEEN of the genre.

[eaglemount]

Bassist James Jamerson way out front at the end. You really can hear his musical genius at work.

[bluepastry]

they were sooo great together...tragedy struck down both..............she was way too young.............was he ever the same after she died?

[jseph1234567890]

@bluepastry No.....It destroyed him for years....

[HIStoryEMD]

i have the karaoke 2 this song if anyone wants to try it out

[badboytish]

bliss to my ears xxxxx

[MrJonk1969]

RIP tammi and marvin

love this song

[gaatooor]

With Earl Van Dyke and the Funk Brothers in the room there was more talent that words could ever begin to describe.. May James Jamerson's great contribution to bass playing never be forgotten. RIP James.

"i've got your picture hangin on the wall And it does'nt seem to say any thing when i call its name... and i realize its just picture in its frame....."

[Lionel4482]

@MultiMda wrong. listen again, you're missing some of the lyrics

[MultiMda]

"i've got your picture hangin on the wall And it does'nt seem to say any thing when i call its name... and i realize its just picture in its frame....."

[wes170]

That instrumental is AMAZING, and yea what a bass line, Mr Jamerson is the best bassist ever. Thanks for posting!

[brandonbear1]

That bass line is tight!

[anfieldroad2005]

THANK YOU FOR THIS BRILLIANT.

[ltiede88]

ah! i hear the i love you! thats crazy i never would have known that was there.

[Peternmo1]

At 0.05 to 0.07

[DifferentM14]

Thank you, you're right! I'm thankful we have their music. It's wonderful.

[Peternmo1]

Listen at the point the engineer restarts the count. It comes between counts two to four. It's there because it's at the same spot everytime.

[ciaramist16]

i like this. i appreciate it more at da end without the singing...pimp

[BREEZYNOB2]

danmit i cant hear it!

[Peternmo1]

Guys and gals, is it my imagination or what!!! Listen closely between counts three and four of the engineer's restart of the duo's countdown and you can hear Tammi whisper "I love you."

[kassab20]

I tried really hard to look out for it but i cant hear it .... i wouldnt be surprised if she did though

[ayplan]

Beautiful song, with the fade outs, the strings and flute sound amazing

[papadop]

How did you fade out certain sections? Wasn't all the music recorded together onto two tracks and the vocals on a separate (third) track?

[AndyMM2008]

No, ANLTRT is an 8 track recording. Motown moved to using 8 track recording in late '65.

[timmy841212]

One of the greatest songs of all time. RIP Marvin & Tammi.

[tropicalpancake56]

Well done...and beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a grand tribute to two superb talents...

[dimples199994]

Was that Tammi Terrel saying we have to do it again?

[AndyMM2008]

I believe so :)

[PiscesPrince1958]

I love this alternate version!!

[ladyshadz86]
