Marvin Gaye's Lost 1972 Album You're the Man Set for Release

Motown has announced the release of Marvin Gaye’s scrapped follow-up to 1971 classic What’s Going On. You’re the Man features all of Gaye’s solo and non-soundtrack recordings from 1972. It’s out March 29, four days before what would have been Gaye’s 80th birthday on April 2. Listen to album track “My Last Chance,” mixed by Salaam Remi, below.

Of the LP’s 17 songs, only the title track was released at the time. Most of the songs have never been released on vinyl until now. David Ritz wrote liner notes for the physical issue. As well as the double-vinyl and digital release of You’re the Man, Motown/UMe is reissuing Gaye’s 1965 album, A Tribute To The Great Nat King Cole.
