A couple articles related to Marvin
« Thread started on: May 1^st, 2012, 02:23am »

First is an article with sites in DC that relate to Marvin:

Second is an article with Zeola, nothing TOO new in there but I find it interesting how close she was with Marvin. He really seemed like a great brother to have. Okay, one thing was new to me at least, apparently Marvin was pissed that he couldn't sing "Sexual Healing" at Motown 25.

I agree though if he did sing "Sexual Healing" he'd never rattle off that very good intro at the piano going through the history and effect of african american music.

That is true. I'm guessing that was a nice compromise...
