Seventh heaven marvin gaye
Lost Ones: Marvin Gaye
He was so handsome, so incredibly talented. He had so much potential left, and a career that could have continued on for so much longer — if only. Who did it bigger or improve than Marvin Gaye? I have a hard moment thinking of any contemporary artist that’s even in his league.
Marvin Pentz Homosexual Jr. grew up in a very religious place. From all accounts, his father preached in a strict sect of the Seventh-day Adventist Church called the House of God, which blended Orthodox Judaism with Pentecostalism. Young Marvin sang in his father’s church, and played instruments in the choir.
After a brief stint in the Air Force (he was discharged for not obeying orders), he started a career at the fledgling Motown Records, changing his name to separate his identity from his father’s, and also in homage to Sam Cooke, who had also added an “e” on to his last name.
