VA - in Loving Memory (1968)
"In Loving Memory" was a special recording of gospel songs by Motown artists, and created in memory of Mrs. Loucye Wakefield, a relative of Berry Gordy's. Harvey Fuqua (formerly of the Moonglows and the Spinners) produced the LP. Long sought after by collectors, the album is best known for including Marvin Gaye's finest recorded moment: "His Eye is on the Sparrow." This is an absolute gospel classic, and I've yet to hear anyone do "Sparrow" better than Marvin (except perhaps Mahalia Jackson). Marvin sounds like Sam Cooke as he wrenches every emotion from this gospel chestnut. . . . . the other tracks are:
01 - Gladys Knight & The Pips - Just A Closer Walk With Thee
02 - Marvin Gaye - His Eye Is On The Sparrow
03 - The Supremes - He
04 - The Temptations - The Lord's Prayer
05 - Martha & The Vandellas - Were You There
06 - Stevie Wonder - Swing Low Sweet Chariot
07 - Gladys Knight & Pips - How Great Thou Art
08 - Four Tops - Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen
09 - The Miracles - Rock Of Ages
10 - The Voices Of Tabernacle - Steal Away
11 - The Voices Of Tabernacle - Never Grow Old
12 - Harvey Fuqua - What Do You Choose
