That’s My Jam Thursday: "Distant Lover"

This week’s jam is in honor of the late, great Marvin Gaye. *fans self* That was a fine man. I really did not get into his music until my adult years. In 2013, when men don’t really sing about loving women any more, I can really appreciate his love songs. “Distant Lover”, particularly his live version, is one of my faves. Between his sultry voice and the band, this is indeed a classic ballad. Just listen to all of the screaming women! Luckily, I was not an adult during the 70’s because I would’ve been on a midnight train to all his performances. So serious. A great talent, gone too soon. I love you Marvin!
