Rare in any shape or format, this, Marvin Gaye’s second album from 1963, combines some of his most soulful, passionate and intense vocalizing, gospel-drenched arrangements and phrasing and none other than Martha Reeves & the Vandellas on backing vocals for maximum effect. The original pressing of this album is obscenely hard to find, and the CD reissue of the album almost as tough to get. This may be your only chance to complete your Marvin Gaye collection or grab this wonderful - probably the best - Marvin Gaye album (with the exception of "What’s going on" , of course). The songs are: Hitch hike (later kidnapped by The Sonics, Velvet Underground and many other white garage bands) - Soldier’s plea - I’m yours, you’re mine - Hello there angel - Get my hands on some lovin’ - Taking my time - Pride and Joy - Whenever I lay my hat - It hurt me, too - Stubborn kind of fellow. Or, in the immortal words of Howard Tate: "Get it while you can".

·                   CONDITION:

·                   RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG NEAR MINT. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)            The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(c)             The record has a "deep groove" (an indent in the label about 1/2-inch from the edge of the label, which on SOME labels is associated with very early or first pressings).

(d)            The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(e)             Stereo copies of this album are NOT known to exist.

(f)              Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

COVER

THE COVER IS STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP; HOWEVER, WE ARE UNABLE TO GRADE IT NEAR MINT DUE TO MINOR FLAWS LISTED BELOW; WE GRADE THIS COVER AS EXCELLENT OR VG++

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover has a partially split bottom seam (between 1 and 2 inches / 2.5 to 5 centimeters)

-         The cover has a square-shaped razor mark (line) on the cover, as if someone attempted to cut away the price sticker from the shrink wrap with a razor, but inadvertently left the mark on the cover as well. The paper slick is intact and no part is missing, but the razor line is visible.

-         Cover has a visible "wrinkle"(crease) in one of the corners.

-         Cover shows JUST A HINT of yellowing on back side, apparently from aging.

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-         No ring wear

-         No cut-out (drill) holes.

-         No cut-out corners

-         No saw-marks or indents

-         No dirt/dust rubbing stains (friction marks caused by rubbing against other covers)
