“HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE” by MARVIN GAYE

“I Heard It Through the Grapevine” is a classic soul song that became one of Marvin Gaye’s signature tracks. Although it was originally recorded by Gladys Knight & the Pips (in 1967), it was Marvin Gaye’s version that became iconic.

His rendition features a slower, more dramatic arrangement, that helped the song become one of the best-selling singles of the 1960s.

On this very day, January 13th 1969, it was the #1 song in America, topping Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. If you’d like to have a listen, simply click on the provided YouTube link. From the album, “In The Groove”, here’s MARVIN GAYE with “HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE”…
