Mike & The Mechanics - Ain't That Peculiar (Marvin Gaye)

Originally recorded in 1966 by the great Marvin Gaye, this is a blockbuster of a track from Mike & The Mechanics, including Roachford on piano and vocals, performed in the Radio 2 Piano Room.

This is sheer brilliance. Some serious talent here, Roachford in particular.

Those are two damn fine lead vocal performances on this under-appreciated Marvin Gaye classic.

Just shows how motown touched, even top musicians

I love this tune, but I think it is a really testament to the genius that every cover seems to sound the same, hard to find a version where anyone does anything different with this one. That said, I like the version by Fanny the best. Classic.

Nice to hear everything clearly but it's too fast and doesn't groove at all. Sorry! Y'all need to get "underneath it."

No Paul Carrack, then no Mike and the Mechanics.
