What’s Goin’ On

Music Relief: “What’s Goin’ On” (Zomba Records)

The immortal Marvin Gaye protest song, the proceeds from which go to Rwanda, features a host of guests including Aswad, Peter Cunnah from D:Ream, Mick Jones, Jimmy Ruffin, Jools Holland, Larry Adler and many more. But don’t let that put you off! ‘What’s Goin’ On’ receives sensitive and soulful treatment and doesn’t have the usual celebrity bluff about it. As relevant today as over a generation ago.
