A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs - Song 174A: “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” Part One, “If At First You Don’t Succeed…”
For those who haven’t heard the announcement I posted , songs from this point on will sometimes be split among multiple episodes, so this is the first part of a two-episode look at the song “I Heard it Through the Grapevine”. This week we take a short look at the song’s writers, Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong, and the first released version by Gladys Knight and the Pips. In two weeks time we’ll take a longer look at the sixties career of the song’s most famous performer, Marvin Gaye. This episode is quite a light one. That one… won’t be.

Patreon backers also have a half-hour bonus episode, on “Bend Me Shape Me” by Amen Corner.
