"What's Going On" - feast of soul, the highest point of style, "Sergeant Pepper" and "Pet Sounds " black music, if you want. And besides, the child of two cross-flow of blood and open wounds - The Marvin Gaye, quietly going crazy from depression (in the spring of 1970, died of cancer on his permanent duet partner, Tammy Terrel, and Marvin tried to get away from the music playing soccer), and his country, just waking from a drunken sleep Summer of Love. The result of a nervous breakdown on a background singer was blushing seventieth conceptual suite of nine songs, which collected from newspapers tragic urgency (sixteenth year of the Vietnam War, the beginning of the environmental nightmare, the epidemic of poverty and drug addiction, degradation, and the criminalization of the ghetto) resulted in an emotional manifesto incredible mental strength and aesthetic power. Each song of the nine is an absolute masterpiece and the gold standard for soul music - all pets-Perepetui million times in all genres (from the most recent examples: "Save The Children" from Bono, "What's Going On" of Perfect Circle, "Mercy Mercy Me" (The Ecology) of The Strokes). Say what you like, but nothing as compelling message of combining social and melodic triumph since not fall into the charts in Billboard - modern political troubadours on the background of Marvin Gaye, unwittingly, look American Idiot.
