marvin gaye's voice is tuneful, his mood sometimes playful. is the tape on?ed up in belgium because in the early �*80s, the seaside town of 0stend was a place of refuge for marvin gaye, whose life in london had spiralled out of control. when he left, the family he lived with say he left them box after box — audio cassettes, documents, notebooks, lyrics and stage costumes — theirs to dispose of as they pleased. it's a bookful. that red jacket is the one marvin wore in montreux. under belgian law, the family's lawyer says they have the absolute right to sell it. the clothes and the accessories, they will be sold. any new music, though, could only be sold with the permission of marvin gaye's children. compromise is called for, says alex trappeniers. i want to reach my hand to the family because when you exploit the copyright which is in the tapes, you can't do that without the authorisation of the estate which is his three children. if his kids become aware of this — marvin gaye's children, who are heirs — and theyjust say, "that's our dad and, like, and morally
