Description
Marvin Gaye’s I Want You, his thirteenth studio album, was released in 1976 as a more intimate follow-up to his early ’70s run of socially driven records. Developed in collaboration with producer Leon Ware, it leans into a sleek, rhythm-forward take on soul that reflects Gaye’s shift toward romantic themes and a more understated vocal approach.
The title track unfolds in multiple forms, from the fully realized vocal version to the loose “Intro Jam,” framing the album’s fluid structure, while “After The Dance” appears as both an instrumental groove and a late-album vocal reprise. Elsewhere, “Come Live With Me Angel” and “Soon I’ll Be Loving You Again” carry the record’s quiet intensity, emphasizing mood and texture over traditional hooks. This vinyl edition preserves the album’s original two-sided sequence.
