Title: Take it real slow, let your love come ... dooowwwn
Product review: Maybe it's better than "What's Going On," definitely it's inferior to "Midnight Love." I love Gaye's music. But its problem, noticeable in these recordings, is, while attractive, it often plods along like a prehistoric beast, and with melodies that aren't quite infectious enough, the songs rarely hit the high notes of real propulsive emotion. An R&B classic just the same. The title track is tremendous, of course, but I think the best song might be "You Sure Love to Ball," inconspicuously sandwhiched between one he wrote during the "What's Going On" sessions and one foreshadowing the demise of Marvin's marriage to Anna Gordy. Political statement of Gaye's life: "Would you rather make love now children/Than make war?"
