Released in 1971, it emerged from a period of personal and social upheaval, with Gaye taking an unprecedented level of creative control over its production and themes, addressing war, poverty, and environmental concerns within a fluid, jazz-inflected soul framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe title track set the tone with its conversational vocal and layered arrangement, while “Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)” and “Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)” extend the album’s focus on environmental and urban strain. Deeper cuts like “Flyin’ High (In the Friendly Sky)” and “Save the Children” broaden its perspective, blending introspection with social commentary. This CD edition includes the original album alongside select B-side versions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marvin Gaye","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42896394125389,"sku":"00044006402222","price":13.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/6484\/0518\/files\/MarvinGaye-WhatsGoingOn-1CD-00044006402222.png?v=1776712126","url":"https:\/\/shop.udiscovermusic.com\/products\/marvin-gaye-what-s-going-on-1cd","provider":"uDiscover Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
