Are you talking about Marvin Gaye's cross-dressing, or cross-dressing as Marvin Gaye?

Marleen: I've arrived, in the nick of time, to save you from more witless sarcasm.

In fact, you've got the story wrong. Marvin Gaye's father, the Reverend Marvin Gay, Sr. -- Marvin added the "e" to his last name -- was a (secret) cross-dresser. Gaye was shot to death by his father on April 1, 1984; apparently, the murder followed an arugment triggered by Marvin's having discovered his father wearing women's clothing. You can read about this sordid story -- and, more importantly, about Gaye's great music -- in David Ritz's Divided Soul: The Life of Marvin Gaye. Hope this helps.

two weeks pass...

Nothing to do with cross-dressing (yet), but BBC Radio has a 6-part series on Marvin Gaye, narrated by Smokey Robinson.
