Billboard 200 - #3, 1977
Billboard Hot 100 - #1, 1977 - Got to Give It Up, Pt. 1
"... there are some real bright spots: a strong reading of his show stopper, Distant Lover, and a remarkably fluid medley of his Tammi Terrell/Kim Weston duets."
- Rolling Stone
"... folks are sure to be floored by these tremendous renditions of some of his best works. This performance is strong from start to finish."
- Pitchfork
"Gaye is a radiant, engaging presence, and the appreciative crowd, hosting their American soul hero for the first time in a decade, obliges with adoring shrieks, shouts and claps. There’s a feeling of intimacy to Gaye’s performance, particularly on the three career-spanning medleys."
- Wondering Sound
Recorded over the course of several shows at the Palladium in London in October, 1976, this set captures Marvin Gaye at a crossroads both personally and in his career. He reportedly agreed to tour Europe to make a fresh start, distance himself from his problems and make some quick money to pay off debts. None of the troubled artist is apparent in Gaye's performances as he soulfully covers material from his entire career up to that point. Of special note are three lengthy, intimate medleys of early hits. The only studio recording on this album is the side-long disco song Got to Give It Up which was tacked onto the original double vinyl to capitalize on the growing disco craze of the mid 1970s. Live At The London Palladium was a surprise hit in 1977, selling two million copies in the US and becoming one of the top ten best-selling albums of the year. An edited single version of Got to Give It Up reached number one on the Billboard singles chart.
