I refuse to choose between the two.

Gaye wrote/co-wrote/co-produced/performed the greatest

popular album of all time. But Curtis Mayfield is/was a better

musician than Gaye; and a much more interesting songwriter.

"The Makings of You" was relayed by God. What's Goin' On

too.

Marvin for me. I'm a much bigger fan of his music than Curtis.

I dont see how or why someone would want to even compare them eek

In this instance it wouldnt matter... it just boils down to preference.

Ahhhh... That's unfair! Both men were great for what they did! I guess Curtis was more of the socially aware idealist (Choice of Colors is sooooo beautiful!) while Marvin was the romantic lover (Let's Get it on is sooooo beautiful!). I hope they rest in peace. innocent

This is like......

Comparing a 5 star hotel to a 5 star hotel

A Blowjob to a rimjob

Cake to Ice Cream

Both are fucking amazing, both taste delicious & both are essential.

Marvin.

I'm not a fan of Curtis' signing (only his songwriting).
