A riveting cautionary tale about the ecstasy and dangers of loving Marvin Gaye, a performer passionately pursued by alland a searing memoir of drugs, sex, and old school R&B from the wife of legendary soul icon Marvin Gaye.After her seventeenth birthday in 1973, Janis Hunter met Marvin Gayethe soulful prince of Motown with the seductive liquid voice whose charttopping, socially conscious album Whats Going On made him a superstar two years earlier. Despite a seventeenyearage difference and Marvins marriage to the sister of Berry Gordy, Motowns founder, the enchanted teenager and the emotionally volatile singer began a scorching relationship.One moment Jan was a high school student; the next she was accompanying Marvin to parties, navigating the intriguing world of 1970s80s celebrity; hanging with Don Cornelius on the set of Soul Train, and helping to discover new talent like Frankie Beverly. But the burdens of fame, the chaos of dysfunctional families, and the irresistible temptations of drugs complicated their love.Primarily silent since Marvins tragic death in 1984, Jan at last opens up, sharing the moving, fervently charged story of one of music historys most fabled marriages. Unsparing in its honesty and insight, illustrated with sixteen pages of blackandwhite photos, After the Dance reveals what its like to be in love with a creative genius who transformed popular culture and whose artistry continues to be celebrated today.
