Devon Gilfillian – What’s Going On (2020) [FLAC 24bit/96kHz]

As the events of 2020 have unfolded, Devon Gilfillian has sought solace and solutions in music – and found both in the timeless songs of Marvin Gaye’s 1971 album, What’s Going On, which took the No. 1 spot on Rolling Stone’s list of the “500 Greatest Albums of All Time,” published last week.

“I don’t have much political power, but I do have the power of music,” Gilfillian said in a news release. “I decided I wanted to learn the entirety of Marvin Gaye’s album, ‘What’s Going On,’ and use that music to raise money to fight voter suppression, bring people together, and share the message that Marvin was trying to get across.” (Devon Gilfillian)

Gilfillian has joined forces with a group of like-minded artists to bring fresh interpretations to the iconic album with his version of What’s Going On – set for October 22 release on Capitol Records – and tonight’s livestream concert, “There’s An Election Going On,” which will benefit Nashville-based grassroots non-profit The Equity Alliance.

“I work best under pressure and when I’m depressed,” he told the Detroit Free Press at the time. “The world’s never been as depressing as it is right now. We’re killing the planet, killing our young men in the streets, and going to war around the world. Human rights … that’s the theme.” (Devon Gilfillian). The resulting collection remains one of the most powerful and poignant albums in the history of American music.
