remembering Marvin Gaye

hard to believe it's been 24 years and I remember that Sunday after me and My Grandmother had gotten home from church and seeing the news where Marvin Gaye had been killed by his father. at first I thought it was a APril fools day joke,but the Body bag and expressings from the crowd spoke the horror which was a hard sad day for me on a very warm day. Marvin Gaye has always been a huge musical hero of mine. His voice was Genius and his words and music which dealt with all of the human spirits and the world around him spoke so strongly and loudly. i almost forgot this particular time period had come up so soon. time flies but the Musical Genius Greatness of Marvin Gaye is timeless. though that particular Sunday 24 years back still is as Haunting as hearing about 2Pac Shakur being dead in 1996 in early September of that year. tonight I will listen to Some Marvin and proclaim a toast to him. today would have been his birthday.
