The eighth studio album by Marvin Gaye, released in 1968. It was the first solo studio album Gaye released in two years, where the singer had emerged as a successful duet partner with female R&B singers such as Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell.
The album was his first recorded studio material released in three years and marked a change in direction for Gaye, leaving his trademark Motown soul for funky, light-disco soul.
