    "comment": "Marvin Gaye proved his credentials as a session musician and drummer. He was the drummer for Smokey Robinson and The Miracles. His stickwork was heard on “Please Mr. Postman,” earmarking a drum pattern Ringo Starr emulated nearly beat to beat on The Beatles’  makeover of the track.\nGaye backed Stevie Wonder on the decidedly wonderful “Fingertips Part 2”, offering a sense of balance as they traversed through their collective careers.\nWant to know more about Gaye's drumming career?: https://www.culturesonar.com/marvin-gaye-in-the-60s-drumming-dreaming/",
