“If I Could Build My Whole World Around You” #10 1/20/1968

Here’s another great one from Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. Several months earlier, Tammi collapsed in Gaye’s arms during a show at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia and was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. This was recorded just before that awful event. She would return from surgery and record a few more fine duets with Marvin. Unfortunately, she succumbed to the brain cancer in 1970.
