Of my collection of DVD Audio, this album is one of the two best I have found. Fully leverages the 5.1 surround sound. You won't be disappointed.

I am playing this DVD audio in a acura that is capable of playing DVD audio. This is the first DVD-A that I am NOT impressed with. On the other hand, if you are a big fan of Marvin Gaye...it may not disappoint you. Just dont expect this DVD-A to sound as good as others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short & Sweet, December 21, 2003

This review is from: Marvin Gaye Collection (DVD-Audio Surround Sound) (DVD Audio)

The reasons that it only gets three stars is that for a collection there are only eleven songs ranging from 1965 - 1973, and also the songs that are omitted. The quality of the music on the disc itself is fantastic; I must admit that I was curious to see how earlier tracks would stand up in surround. I think the sound images are placed really well considering the age of the material on offer. Not included are tracks such as; how sweet it is (to be loved by you), you're all I need to get by & too busy thinking 'bout my baby, also older tracks like sexual healing are also missing. With the body of work an artist such as Marvin Gaye produced, there should have been plenty of scope to include B-sides, rarities & live tracks on the disc. Although it is short with not a lot of features - just the basic lyrics and photo gallery, the price amazon's selling represents value for money.
