Marvin Gaye - Got To Give It Up (Live in Montreux)

[OscarDiestro]

Great stuff!. Big Marvin! I'll be dancing all night now!

[maryansguardian]

Not a bad guy, just made his statements too loud and gave his son a chance to live out his self in perhaps a more prominent way.

[jonesai7tube]

[loitalove2009]

THIS IS  THE SONG

[pblackbird]

What was the song they were playing as Marvin came out on stage?

[Hotbttms]

'Time to get it together' from the Here, My Dear album

[alue1252]

What a man! sings from his heart about how he feels. lots of his songs are based on his reality and the loves in his life.

[MasonOnTheFly]

Every single person on stage was feeling it!!! The background singers, the band, the fine lady playing the cow bell and congas (sorry, forgot her name but she has a channel on YouTube). And Marvin was being Marvin!!

[MasonOnTheFly]

I should have read the comments below; the fine looking lady is Sandra Lee Akaka. Aloha!!

[hapzap13]

They don't make it funky like this anymore !!! This man is truly missed i grew up with him and his music and for that i'am truly blessed. I'am 63 so i was their from the start to his awful death. My heart is still broken.

[loitalove2009]

thats siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii TRUE

[hapzap13]

That you so much for your comment. It was very heartfelt.

[derdirigent]

I'll always love this funky stuff!

[loitalove]

dammmm his father

[ladyofrage1234]

@loitalove you know homos are haters.



[ladyofrage1234]

@ladyofrage1234 he probably wasn't even his real daddy. He dressed like a bitch.

[JahWorks420]

he really was a killer bandleader... you can def. tell!

[Gambinotubee]

Funk 4 life !

R.I.P. M.G.

[macvoutie]

A gent named Goodtogo hipped me to this. Glad he did. I think thats Sheila Escovedo on percussion. Excellent!

[rhythmaddict808]

What a great compliment! thank you! No, it's Sandy Akaka like it says in the credits if you own this dvd;-) That would be me!

Aloha!

[macvoutie]

No I have two thank you because now I know the name of two monster percussionist who are also beautiful women. Thank You.

GRANDE MARVIN

[bdachakeya]

I advise all of you guys to read Marvin's autobiography if you haven't yet. It's a must-read especially if you're a Marvin fan. It's a book I read about 20-25 years ago. In it you will find about his life time struggle with his father, his rebellious ways with his father, Motown and Barry Gordy, and all things he considered to be his demons. All of these things contributed to Marvin becoming a paranoia Schytzophranic.

[timmy841212]

Go Marvin!

[Justinexxxxxx]

I love this song. He has a huge range, i mean you get lets get it on, then this song.

[sunsetbalm]

RIP tha king of gettin ass

[OldRaver1]

Love his late entrance - Marv was bound to be backstage partying.. what a great clip, never seen it before. Very cool jam.

God Bless your Marvin, RIP xx

[bdachakeya]

Nah, OldRaver, Marvin was probably back stage getting high. If you read Marvin's autobiography he wrote before he passed, he told you that he never could enter the stage without getting a good bump coke. He stated that on several occasions that his brother, who was one his backup singer, would start the show for him with all lights down because he hadn't gotten high yet. Marvin did this because he was terribly shy and after all his yrs in the industry he still needed a high to face the stage.

[apolloniasixer]

this song is actually about how much of a shy wallflower he was...but it is also about how he wanted to be the one to give it up

[jayscott49]

is that Sheila E on percussion? crazy, crazy band.

[rhythmaddict808]

I love that you think that was Sheila E. Huge compliment to me! I did that tour over 30 yrs ago, name in the credits is me Sandy..more on facebook see Sandra Lee Akaka.I know you wrote this a while back but I just now saw it.

Aloha!

[koffeeblack]

@rhythmaddict808

Awesome work Sandra! I looked you up on FB after watching that awesome version of Heard it through the grapevine in Montreux! I listen to that everyday at least 5 times a day, on the way to work on the train, on the way home, when i get home! Love it. What is the deal with the guy playing trumpet in the old worksmans hat? That is cool!

[7575047]

@rhythmaddict808 ..Way to groove Sandy!

[coralwave59]

What an absolutely brilliant performanmce to one of Marvin's more popular songs!

[hopediamond4real]

Marvin was MARVELOUS!!!

[aotearoablossom]

Indeed Sista he was :)))))

[curtwild87]

[Laurent75017]

[ninyapinya]

[International72521]

How come there aren't any version of this song?  I don't think is version is the best let alone, the best concert.
