Also, I may have fudged up the info about the Verve using the Andrew Oldham Orchestra song. I said that the Verve didn’t license the use of the sample, which is inaccurate. The Verve did license the song, but after the song became a hit, The Verve was sued for using too much of the song by Allen Klein’s ABKCO records, which owns the rights to the Rolling Stones 1960’s catalogue. Allen Klein became the Rolling Stone’s co-manager in 1965, and bought Andrew Loog Oldham’s share of the Rolling Stones’ management (Andrew Loog Oldham, of The Andrew Oldham Orchestra, was the manager of the Rolling Stones up until Klein came along. Oldham produced all of the Rolling Stone’s work from 1963 until late ‘67.) The Stones fired Klein in 1970, causing Klein to sue. The legal settlement meant Klein got the rights to most of their songs made before 1971. (Thanks Wikipedia!)

Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On (MT Mix)

From the album “What’s Going On”

Got the mono multi-tracks to another classic Marvin Gaye song, and decided to fiddle with it. Ended up mixing this. Enjoy!

For comparison, here is the original.
