Putting them in the studio together paid off right away. Rather than lean only on the Detroit hit-factory formula, the album embraces sophisticated pop and supper-club standards, letting two very different voices bounce off each other with easy, flirtatious charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two original singles are the heart of it. \"Once Upon a Time\" is a sweet, swaying ballad full of conversational warmth, and \"What's the Matter with You Baby\" adds playful, teasing back-and-forth. Elsewhere they bring a light touch to standards like \"(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons\" and \"'Deed I Do,\" swinging gently over polished arrangements that let the vocals shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTogether became the blueprint for Gaye's later duet albums with Kim Weston and, most famously, Tammi Terrell. Heard in mono, the voices sit front and center with real punch and warmth, much as they did on the radios and record players of the day, and the whole record feels wonderfully intimate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67763346932002,"sku":"8435395504246","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Marvin_Gaye_Mary_Wells-Together_Original_Master_Mono.jpg?v=1794323842","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/marvin-gaye-mary-wells-together-original-master-mono","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
