    grab the live version, it's a double LP with one of the sides being "got to give it up"-the version you need.b,121b,121and grab U-Terns remix of it, real dope.

    Nah but I don't want the live version... do I?b,121b,121And what's the u-tern remix like? Still soulful?

    Young Phonics is speaking the truth. You want the live LP. "Got to Give It Up" is a studio recording that fills up all of side D, making it effectively a 12".

    Silly rabbit. The version you want is the live version. It's always been from a live album, the single has always been "live". The 12" you looked at is the right version. Should be about 11 mins long.

    You can hear Marvin shout out Don Cornelius in the background on this record.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121"Got to Give It Up" isn't live it's a studio recorded song. I comes as a 12" in the Live @ the London Palladium 2XLP. So that's the one you want.

    It's on the flip of the UK 12" of "A Funky Space Reincarnation" as well. The A-side has that "Disco Eye-Cue" feature where all the sections are mastered as separate bands within the track. They should bring that shit back.

    Somebody (I think it was somebody on here, actually) recently sold the 2nd LP of the live album as a "Got to Give it Up" 12" on ebay for crazy loot. I'm sure it was not intentional, but if the transaction was actually completed I'd like to see the face of the guy who received what was actually not even a dollar record.b,121b,121Oh, and I'm pretty sure it clearly states in the notes of the Live 2xLP that GTGIU is a new studio track tacked on to the live set.
  • KineticKinetic 3,739 Posts
    Ok... so bear with me here, because people have said different things. I had seen the white label 12" pictured above, and as I undersdtand it, this is a live recording, right? But then other people are saying that the 2LP Live album includes a studio version of this song. Or are they both the same recording?

    font class="post"1b,121b,121I don't think there is a live version. The studio take is from the Live LP. I guess there's a rare 12" of it too that I've never seen, but the LP version is being referred to here 'as like a 12"' because it gets its own whole side of wax (and its long as hell).

    font class="post"1b,121b,121Yes, I think the confusion comes from it being on a "Live" record and the way the song was recorded (so loosely) it sounded "live," even tho it was not.

    Wiki:b,121b,121Initially "Got to Give It Up" in its 11-minutes-plus version was included as the final side of his 1977 double-album live collection, Live at the London Palladium (number three pop, number one R&B). The song was issued as an edited four minutes-plus-release, titled "Got to Give It Up, Pt. 1," and became Gaye's biggest hit, with sales exceeding two million copies, since his seminal 1973 anthem, "Let's Get It On".b,121The song was originally recorded in a three minute version, and was edited to almost 12 and minutes for the album. Featured on the recording were Buggys Wilcox on drums, Frankie Beverly of Maze, on percussion and Gaye himself playing keyboards, RMI synthesizer bass, and a glass bottle filled half way with grapefruit juice. The saxophone in the song was played by Fernando Harkness with guitar played by Johnny McGhee,who was a member of the group, LTD.The song had its start with Buggsy and Marvin,jamming in the studio. Art Stewart,Producer/Engineer,hit the record button on the 24 track MCI. The rest is history.b,121 ???Arthur (Art) Stewart. July 7,2008.b,121b,121"Got to Give It Up" was mostly sung by Gaye on both lead and background through the duration of the song especially in the second half. Marvin's brother, Frankie Gaye and Janis Hunter, who would become Gaye's second wife, provided background vocals near the end of the first half of the song.
