In celebration of the Marvin Gaye 's album "What’s Going On" passing the half-century mark, that album, dubbed "Funky Nation: The Detroit Instrumentals" , has finally been treated to a release. On the 14-track collection of psychedelic instrumental suites, Marvin Gaye is joined by the late Hamilton Bohannon on drums, Ray Parker Jr. (17-years-old at the time,) Wah Wah Watson , and Leroy Emmanuel on guitars, as well as a 20-year-old Michael Henderson on bass. A handful of tracks from the album were released on prior special editions of albums and the full collection was featured in the “super deluxe” 40th-anniversary edition of "What’s Going On" , but this is the first time "Funky Nation" has been released digitally as a standalone album.  Stream the album below!!!
