Gladys Knight and CCR can't touch Gayes version of Heard It Through, not even sorta kinda, i couldn't disagree more. Although i like all three versions.

Gaye was an exceptionally talented vocalist and i put him on a par with all the motown greats including Stevie Wonder.
yeah that's his other best known song - i mean i like the album and such, but most of the songs do tend to sound similar

Temptations were a pop act in the 60s, by the late 60s until the mid 70s, they were pretty much a megaphone for Whitfield's thoughts on society
