Summary: Expecting More
Comment: God rest the souls of the Gaye brothers. In reading this book, I thought I would find the closure in peicing together where Marvin's life starting going chaotic, but I did not find that. Everything written in this memoir pretty much repeated what Marvin wrote in his. I know at one point, there was a feud between Frankie and his older sister, who had differing views of their upbringing. Maybe she will write a book and we can get closer insight.

Rating: 5
Summary: AWESOME BOOK GREAT DETAIL
Comment: OH MY GOD, this was a wonderfully written book. Frankie tells you all about his brother. When I finished I felt like I knew Marvin. I recommend all fans should add this to their collection.

Rating: 5
Summary: Very Insightfull!!!!!!!
Comment: I enjoyed this book very much. It made me laugh and it also made me think about life in terms of how Marvin lived his life. His brother, Frankie, gives us an insight on Marvin not just being a troubled man but gives us specifics. Marvin being a rebel, stubborn, and provocative man, Frankie lets us know that Marvin was also a shy, loving, gentle, God fearing man. And lets not forget their sense of humor as brothers. Frankie's take on the reason for the events that stemmed from childhood leading up to Marvins death makes more sense and puts a closure of any rumor (ie: arguing over insurance money) regarding that day on April 1, 1984. Marvin got the attention, among other things, that his father never had or tried to get. His father resented and was jealous of Marvin for public attention as an entertainer as well as attention from his Mother. This book is good reading I would strongly recommed it to any Motown or Marvin Gaye fan!!!!!
