Marvin Gaye Boxed Sets

[thommg]

I don't recall anyone mentioning these box sets. Evidently they contain individual sleeves of all his albums released during specific time periods. Volume One is albums from 1961-1965:
This special box set collects seven original albums on individual CDs, replicating the original LP jackets in mini-sleeves, housed in a unique illustrated slipcase. It's the first of three planned sets that will encompass the breadth of Gaye's career:

- Marvin's rare debut album, The Soulful Moods of Marvin Gaye
- His pop breakthrough That Stubborn Kinda Fellow
- The moody and highly collectable When I'm Alone I Cry
- The covers albums Hello Broadway and A Tribute to the Great Nat 'King' Cole
- Together, a duets LP with label mate Mary Wells, which features the double-sided top 20 hit 'Once Upon a Time'/'What's The Matter With You Baby'
- 'How Sweet It Is to Be Loved By You,' highlighted by the title track and other Motown favorites.

Yes I picked this set up when it was heavily discounted some time ago but the mini lp sleeves are not a patch on the Japanese versions. Still they are probably good value when you can find the set for a few quid. You will know that Volumes 2 and 3 are already available on both vinly and CD. These have been discussed [[e.g. post 70 here)..
