abstract
  • %22Pride and Joy%22 is a 1963 single by Marvin Gaye, released on the Tamla label. The single, co-written by William %22Mickey%22 Stevenson, Gaye and Norman Whitfield, and produced by Stevenson, was considered to be a tribute to Gaye's then-girlfriend, Anna Gordy.The song was also the third straight (and last) single to include Martha and the Vandellas in background vocals just weeks before %22Heat Wave%22 made the girl group one of the high-tier Motown acts.The song was also Gaye's first top ten pop single peaking at number ten on the chart and just missed the top spot of the R&B singles chart peaking at number two. The song also helped continue Gaye's successful hit streak as the singer would score another Top 40 pop hit at the end of that year with %22Can I Get a Witness%22.The album version of the single featured on Gaye's second album, That Stubborn Kinda Fellow is different in parts to the single version presenting a more jazz effect than the gospel-emulated version that became a single.The Jackson 5 covered the song for the G.I.T.: Get It Together outtake in 1973, which would be released in 1976 on their compilation album Joyful Jukebox Music.When The Beatles first arrived in New York City in 1964, they requested Murray the K play the song on his radio station.
