Marvin Gaye: Live In Montreux 1980

I had this on DVD somewhere, but I lost it. I heard that the whole concert was on CD. I thought that the concert was excellent and better than the historical concert at the London Palladium he cut back in 1977. All the cuts are one here and I'm really loving it. I've been playing this one all week and it sounds better each time I here it. Anybody heard this one yet?

Yes I got me a copy of this DVD last summer, it's an essential Marvin performance.

Yes this is a great perfomance by him. I caught this when PBS had one of their fund drives last year. I wish they would release his 1972 show from Oakland, California. He's wearing his hat, blue jean outfit, and platforms given to him by George Clinton. That's a great show too.

I've NEVER in my life seen any footages by Marvin other than "My Pride & Joy" and "Sexual Healing" videos boxed

Didn't he already release that back in 1974 calling it "Live!"? Th performance was just weak on album. I remember the album cover:

I think he's referring to the live footage on video; they've shown it on tv a couple of times, I know VH1 aired it once...They really should release it on DVD...
