O álbum “Let’s Get It On” foi gravado ao longo de três anos, de junho de 1970 a julho de 1973, em estúdios icônicos de Detroit (Hitsville U.S.A. e Golden World) e também em Los Angeles (Hitsville West).
Apesar de ser conhecido como um disco funk, o álbum combina soul suave, doo‑wop e letras sexualmente sugestivas, sendo descrito por um crítico como “um dos álbuns mais carregados sexualmente já gravados”.
A produção de “Let’s Get It On” trouxe ao Marvin Gaye maior controle criativo na Motown, e o álbum se tornou o mais bem‑vendido de sua carreira na gravadora.
As faixas “Let’s Get It On”, “Come Get to This” e “You Sure Love to Ball” alcançaram sucesso nas paradas da Billboard, consolidando Gaye como ícone sexual após o álbum socialmente consciente “What’s Going On”.
O título‑track ajudou a criar os formatos “slow jam” e “quiet storm”, influenciando gerações posteriores de artistas e produtores de R&B.
Em 2001 o álbum foi relançado como edição deluxe de dois CDs, e em 2023 recebeu uma nova edição comemorativa dos 50 anos com material adicional.
