Breakout from the Universal Music Enterprises series of special vinyl releases, a seven-LP box set, Volume 3 : 1971-1981 featuring Marvin Gaye's final seven studio releases for the Motown label and subsidiary Tamla Records.

Released in 1973, Diana & Marvin, with Diana Ross, was Gaye's final duets album, a multi-format success that sold more than a million copies worldwide. It peaked at N° 26 on the Billboard 200 and N° 7 on the soul LP's chart. Their cover of "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)" has been sampled by several hip-hop artists over the years, including 50 Cent and Southstar (who interpolated the song on their only hit, "Tell Me").

The album's singles included "You're a Special Part of Me", an Adult Contemporary hit which peaked at N° 12 on the pop chart and N° 4 soul, "Don't Knock My Love", which scored at N° 46, and "My Mistake (Was to Love You)", which cracked the Top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and soul singles charts.
