Thanks for posting this interview. While the story of Marvin Gaye and What's Going On is well known, it's interesting to see Harry Weinger discussing it.

Harry...thanks for more....fascinating and great to see. You know what would really be great? For you have a dvd with each new Motown cd release with you in the studio in front of the sound board discussing a mix or two from the cd.

Wow, thanks Harry. What I wouldn't give to have been in that control room. A fascinating look at the craft of that song. Questlove is absolutely right about that song being the "conga" song. You almost don't even hear the drums because of the reverb on the slap carries the rhythm so much. Are you planning a complete remix of the song? That would be very interesting.
