- I remixed this one over a year ago, but never liked the sound, so after 64K views of the original, I have re-eq'd it, deleted the first upload and am re uploading the song...it sounds a lot clearer and in time for a Motown Monday!
Marvin Gaye had heard Johnnie Taylor's "Disco Lady" and loved the way Johnnie sang the "fabulous" song and that it was "as good as disco got". Marvin was intrigued by the image of a "super sexy dancing woman" but added a twist to it when he began working on "Dancing Lady" in 1976. He was in London to play at the Royal Albert Hall and the London Palladium, getting rave reviews for his live performances which were being recorded for a live double LP to be released in 1977. However, he ended up with only three sides worth of material and decided to finish "Dancing Lady" as a studio track to close out the project. Working on a riff he came up with, he began adding a variety of sounds to fill out the rhythm track using a "hotel sheet" that produced a wobble sound, "tapping half filled bottles of grapefruit juice" and people talking in the studio to create a party atmosphere. He was then inspired to rename the song "Got To Give It Up" and make it about a shy guy at a club who finally joins the party and ends up having a great time meeting his sexy dancing lady. Cut in Los Angeles in the fall of 1976 with Bugsy Wilcox on drums, Johnny McGhee on guitar and on background vocals he had his brother Frankie and his fiancee Jan Hunter provide their subtle harmonies to the mix. Marvin never left the studio, even recording his own overdubs live while operating the mixing board console by having his microphone set up over the top of it. He would record about two lines and then run the tape back and add more harmonies. Marvin was also adamant that the song was not disco but a funk song as it "got a chant to it, it's got a round type of overplay, like at the end its got two chants going simultaneously and the bass line is hypnotic. Disco is more monotonous." The song spent five weeks R&B #1, one week #1 on the Hot 100 and National Disco Action Top 40 Chart, an all around smash. It is #14 of the top songs for 1977.

At the age of 70 i can still dance to this song. my mind went back when this first came out.
GREAT WORKOUT JAMMIN
My mom loved this record.

JAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJA SAMEEEEE

I mean Ani.
Absolutely!!!

Marvin Gaye definitely, created a masterpiece with this hit. This two record set was a tremendous hit, and the single was a "monster". A matter a fact, " Got To Give It Up " filled a entire side. The man was a genius, and he used, cowbell, glass milk containers, etc. This dynamic sound was original, no "PLAGIARISM". Marvin was blessed and he blessed all of us. Lastly, he did not have hi -- tech gadgets, like this generation uses extensively today. God gave Mr Gaye his talents.
Well said. This is real music as only Marvin could bring it.
Marvin Gaye is my favorite soul singer of all time rip to the greatest
One of the GREATEST songs EVER created!!!
Word! Gaf.
Agreed.
2nd that
WORD squared 💥💥💥

I was 24 when this came out in the spring of 1977. I remember listening to it on a beach in Mexico. You could get several rock stations from L.A. on the north end of the Sea of Cortez @ El Gulfo de Santa Clara. What a FUN time. What great memories!!!
Wow!!! The Cat strikes again with an ABSOLUTE CLASSIC from 77 and the memories just flooding me right now!!! YESSSSS!!
Only need 2 words to describe this jam...MOST EXCELLENT.. Nuff said..
Unbelievable. The groove on this mix was totally unexpected- you were right to take this one extra long.
The Estate hasn't tried to sue you yet? May have to give it up!😆
There will never be a duplicate of the Man!!! His catalog could come out tomorrow and crush ANYBODY AND ERYBODY!!! CHUUUCH!!!
Got to give it up Marvin Gaye. This is R&B Classics and we miss you Marvin Gaye. Don’t worry. I love ❤❤❤ you. All Motown Records. Berry Gordy and Motown Records! The Jackson 5 and Martha and The Vandellas all lots of singers! The Temptations. Not bad not bad at all. I loved 🥰 it! I loved it! Welcome to Motown.

I have to say, you are my #1 go to for mixes, you are by far the best dj ive heard on youtube! Especially the beginnings, the way you slowly introduce the song one layer at a time sounds so awesome, thanks for helping me keep my sanity during this shutdown, brother
Djdiscocat is the best, I love how I can relaxe into the mix
Put quite a bit of wear and tear on several pairs of shoes dancing to this record! Couldn’t sit with it playing! Sounds just as good now as it did then! 🇷🇸
Actually my fave M.G. song.. nice remix.
Splendid. You just gotta love a song with this much cowbell. Oh thank Heaven for the Word Wide Web, and the master mixer - DJDiscoCatV2 that put this together.
Boo-yah, baby! Now that's how a Motown disco mix should have sounded, one with a purr-fect touch! Worth keeping, too.
You’re killing me in the best way possible! You reawakened my soul. Mad respect & appreciation! ❤️🙏🏼
Still off the charts!
Have mercy ... Got to have me some Marvin ... Let's dance! Let's shout! Gettin' funky what it's all about. 🎵🎼🎶
Thus is my favorite by The man Marvin Gaye funkety funkster

Alright Chap, you just showed the world you have the Talent for staying Power! Thank you for taking us back on a Beautiful Tripp!
The thang is I hav3 and continually study the Original. However, this version, DJ DiscoCat, provides the in depth view of the placements in the music. Most Especially, a Big Up, OG! ThAnkh You!!!!
I remember hearing it on the radio and ran out I bought it.I was 16.
I humbly request a Disco Purrfection version of Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get by The Dramatics, the song is way too damn short!
Yes he needs to do a purrfection version of this song, I already requested it a few weeks ago. It's a great song
Here ya go! ua-cam.com/video/S60jOTvL3UU/v-deo.html

Wholeheartedly agree!!!
¡Yes, sir!
Marvin Gaye's original is 1,000 times better than Blurred Lines.
OMG!
On 'THIS' MEMORIAL DAY, the 'MEMORIES' are of the DAYS and NIGHTS that I was " 'THAT CHICK from CHICAGO' named SIMONE" at the INFAMOUS 'NEW LOUNGE' (The SILVER METEOR Bar for the AMTRAK TRAIN STATION that's DIRECTLY ACROSS the STREET ) at NEBRASKA Ave & ZACK in TAMPA, FLORIDA, and 'BONE CRUSHER', the DEEJAY would ANNOUNCE when 'SIMONE' had ARRIVED cause 'I' would DANCE 'THIS' START to FINISH, and BOTH FEMALES and MALES would be TAGGIN' IN to DANCE with ME!😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝
I'm also 'LADY SNOW, the 'REAL' & 'ONLY' MS CHICAGO!
THANKS for UPLOADING 'THIS' VERSION!
I think back to the scene in the film Summer Of Sam where John Leguizamo and Mira Sorvino were dancing to this jam. It was flawless.
Thank God that Marvin Gaye's music lives on UA-cam - We're hoping and praying that in your self-imposed quarantine Brother DJ Disco Cat you stay healthy and have a great Passover/Easter season too!
Wow I can really hear the "Prince sound" in this song!! Marvin Gaye was a huge influence on Prince. 💜
I think Sexy MF by Prince comes into mind
Here's an extended rare version I've never heard of this song from the intro outro to the stripped-down no added reverb... LUVIT!
OMG!! I've finally found you it's been years of asking everyone who knew Marvin Gaye sung I'm breaking out the stacks. B.
Go head Marvin, love ❤️ this song! I would do the old time swing and two step. Heyyyyyyyy alllllll right now! Hey hey hey. I need to dance with somebody !

Marvin's GOT TO GIVE IT UP, it will make a dead man rise up from his casket and do his farewell dance. Just keeping it real to an actual beat. What a slick way to beg for that good thang and rock your body at the same time.

Sound quality is rockin man cheers for posting
７７年全米No.１に輝いたモータウン永遠の大ヒットナンバーで、ライブ、「アットザロンドンパラディアム」の収録ナンバーで、当時日本で、邦題🎵「黒い夜 part１・２ 」のカップリングでモータウンレーベル、ビクターからシングル発売された。ちなみに、マーヴィンゲイと聞くと、６０年代のナンバーより、７０年代の🎵「ホワッツゴーイングオン邦題、愛のゆくえ」や、🎵「レッツゲットイットオン」、ダイアナロスとのデュオナンバーで知られる🎵「ユアーエブリシング」や、🎵「マイミステイク」などのナンバーをイメージする人が多いのではないか。
You said it, Sista!
👍👍👍👍👍💃💃💃💃💃 Merci¡!¡!¡
Got to give it up bop bop bop!!
