Following Volume One and Volume Two, Marvin Gaye Volume Three: 1971-1981 is a collection of his last seven Motown studio albums on 180g vinyl in one fantastic box!

Commonly referred to as the "Prince of Soul", Marvin Gaye helped to shape the sound of Motown Records and was one of the greatest voices to emerge from the label.

On June 1, 1970, Gaye recorded his new composition What's Going On in Hitsville, U.S.A., inspired by an idea from Renaldo "Obie" Benson of The Four Tops after he witnessed an act of police brutality at an anti-war rally in Berkeley. Released in 1971, it reached number on on the R&B charts within a month, staying there for five weeks. The album became Marvin Gaye's first million-selling album launching two more top ten singles "Mercy Mercy Me" and "Inner City Blues". One of Motown's first autonomous works, its theme and segue flow brought the concept album format to rhythm and blues.

In 1971, Gaye signed a $1million dollar deal with Motown, making it the most lucrative deal by a black recording artist at the time. Marvin Gaye first responded to the new contract with the soundtrack and subsequent score, Trouble Man, released in late 1972. In 1973, he released the "Let's Get It On" album., its title track becoming Gaye's second number one single on the Hot 100. The album, which stayed on the charts for two years, later was hailed as "a record unparalleled in its sheer sensuality and carnal energy".

Marvin's final duet project, Diana & Marvin, with Diana Ross, garnered international success despite contrasting artistic styles. The album "I Want You" followed in 1976 with the title track becoming a number-one R&B hit. 

Ini 1978, Marvin Gaye issued "Here, My Dear", inspired by the fallout of his first marriage to Anna Gordy. Recorded as an intent for Gaye to remit a portion of its royalties to her to receive alimony payments, it initially flopped on the charts but turned into a cult album in later years. Gaye then reworked Love Man from its original disco concept to another personal album invoking religion and the possible end time from a chapter in the Book of Revelation. Titling the album In Our Lifetime, Gaye worked on the album for much of 1980 in London studios such as Air and Odyssey Studios.
