I Want You

Released 1976Soul & R&B
Classic

A lush, sensual concept album of slow-burning soul. Smooth and beloved. A high point. Released in 1976, it's a key entry in Marvin Gaye's run.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
