Marvin Gaye was already a hit artist for a decade when, in 1971, he reached new heights with his landmark album What’s Going On. His next move? A mostly instrumental, orchestral jazz-soul soundtrack for the forgotten Ivan Dixon 1972 blaxploitation film Trouble Man. The album, though a surprise to followers, was a hit, producing a top 10 pop title track and legions of new fans, including musicians who started the acid-jazz movement in its wake.

“There were a couple other movies that had the R&B music of the time in it, but it wasn’t like the way Marvin did it. What Marvin actually did in the album – it’s both the source music and the score music all mixed in one…And on the album itself, it’s – I say like opera because it sort of describes the film.” – album saxophonist Trevor Lawrence, NPR
