There are better compilations for the money

"The songs here all great examples of Marvin Gaye's later material. Unfortunately there are other single and double disc compilations that include more later material and some of his fantastic early recordings as well. For the money, buy a copy of the 2001 "Very Best of" double CD which contains the best of his Motown recordings as well as music released on Columbia in the later years. The songs here are great but will leave you wanting more (there's no "Sexual Healing"). Save a few bucks more and buy the "Very Best Of" new or used. You can build your collection from there."
Nice compilation of a soul legend!

"These without a doubt are some classic recordings by Marvin, but the only reason i can possibly see me or anyone else copping this greatest hits collection would be strictly for the title song "My last Chance", due to the fact that it does not exist on any other of his greatest hits or anthology collections, which i think is somewhat sad. That song along with the live version of the "Star Spangled Banner" from the 1983 Nba all star game should be on at least two greatest hits collections."
