How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)/ Forever

Here's a beautiful copy of the first pressing with the 'globes' Tamla logo. For some reason, both Rolling Stone magazine and Dave Marsh leave this stellar performance out of their respective "best 45s" lists, but don't think for a moment that you can have a complete Marvin Gaye collection without it -- the music somehow brings to life the pure joy the lyrics express. On the flip, Gaye cover another beautiful H-D-H love song... one The Marvelettes had also recorded earlier. That song deserves two stars all by itself! Note: This beautiful stock copy comes in a vintage Hitsville U.S.A. factory sleeve. It grades Near Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). The labels have a touch of ringwear.
