- That's the Way Love Is is the tenth studio album by soul musician Marvin Gaye, released on January 8, 1970, on the Tamla (Motown) label. Built on the success of the title track (#7 US Pop, #2 US R&B in late 1969) originally taken from M.P.G., and much like Gaye's "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" after its success, was released with intent to sell albums based on the success of one particular single (a Motown trademark). Gaye was showing signs of disillusionment from the label's powers-that-be mentality but it didn't affect the singer's performance as he gave a powerful vocal in the title track and was especially impressive with his version of The Beatles' "Yesterday". He achieved some success with a cover version of "How Can I Forget?" (originally recorded by The Temptations), which just missed out on the US Pop Top 40, making #41, and reached #18 on the R&B Charts. Its B-side, a cover of Jimmy Ruffin's "Gonna Give Her All the Love I've Got", made a separate chart entry, and peaked at #67 and #27 on the Pop and Soul Charts respectively. Gaye also recorded a version of Ruffin's "Don't You Miss Me a Little Bit Baby" for the album. The LP also features Gaye's rendition of the socially conscious tune "Abraham, Martin & John", which became a hit in the UK, peaking at #9 in June 1970. The single (and that of his duet single with Tammi Terrell titled "The Onion Song") is widely regarded as a hint of what would follow a year later with his What's Going On. He also covered The Temptations' hits "I Wish It Would Rain" and "Cloud Nine". (en)

- That's the Way Love Is is een muziekalbum uit 1970 van Marvin Gaye. Het verscheen op Tamla, een sublabel van Motown en bevat voornamelijk covers die Gaye zelf had uitgekozen in plaats van dat deze hem werden aangedragen; bijvoorbeeld Yesterday van de Beatles. Het titelnummer (oorspronkelijk van The Isley Brothers) is ook terug te vinden op voorganger M.P.G. die het begin vormde van een zoektocht naar een eigen identiteit. Abraham, Martin & John (eerder opgenomen door Dion en Smokey Robinson & the Miracles) haalde in juni 1970 de Engelse top 10 en was een van de eerste nummers waarin Gaye een sociale boodschap verkondigde. Tegen die tijd begon de opname van What's Going On waarmee Gaye zowel uiterlijk als muzikaal zijn imago als hitzanger afschudde. (nl)
