Marvin Gaye heard it through the grape vine?

Marvin Gaye was shot and killed by his father on April 1, 1984 by his father on the eve of his birthday..I Heard It Through THe Grapevine was a big hit for Marvin in 1968, a year before,1967,it was a hit for Gladys Knight and THe Pips, a more soulful gospel feel to it,Marvins was more swamp smooth like sound!!!..other motown artists recorded it as well Smokey Robinson and The Miracles and Bobby Taylor
