Recorded at Marvin Gaye Studio, Hollywood, California. HERE MY

DEAR was originally released on Tamla (364) as a 2 LP set.

Includes liner notes by David Ritz and Curtis M. Shaw.



Digitally remastered by Bill Inglot & Dan Hersch (DigiPrep

Studios).



A concept album of some magnitude, although the subject matter

could hardly have been comfortable listening for Anna, Marvin

Gaye's ex-wife. She was the subject of Gaye's public 'divorce

album', a clever idea if there were no real people involved. The

illustration on the sleeve depicts love, marriage, pain and

divorce, in addition to the scales of justice (equal). This

lengthy album (originally a double vinyl) was poorly received by

the critics, although now it has grown in stature, and it really

does have considerable depth and melody. Let's face it, if Gaye

sang a gardening seed catalogue from cover to cover it would be

brilliant.



Rolling Stone (1/25/95, p.53) - Voted Best Reissue Album in the

1995 Critic's Poll.



Q (3/00, p.126) - Included in Q Magazine's "Best Relationship

Albums Of All Time" - "...due to the chaotic state of his

finances Gaye was ordered to give the profits of his next album

to his ex-wife [Anna Gordy]. Result: this bizarre but gripping

double, a bitterness concept album designed to make as little

money as possible..."



Alternative Press (5/01, p.104) - Included in AP's "10 Essential

Breakup Albums" - "...Some of the most personal material he ever

recorded..."



Magnet (p.115) - "HERE, MY DEAR is arguably the most untethered

ode to the dissolution of love ever recorded....One of pop's

defining concept works."



Vibe (5/94, p.105) - "...incorporates all of his techniques:

sweet doo-wop romanticism...pop-gospel yearnings...and soul

abandon...amid what could be called his most personal of

records...Gaye may have been at his most lucid: vocally

inventive, musically experimental, and finally, emotionally

unrestrained...."
