==Albums== Several albums have been released to commemorate Gaye's influence on popular music. Among the two albums released include ''Inner City Blues: The Music of Marvin Gaye'', released in 1994 in collaboration with MTV, who previewed the album's contents with the airing of the documentary about Gaye, also titled ''Inner City Blues: The Music of Marvin Gaye'', that featured vintage Gaye performances, as well as performances of his songs by other artists, notably Stevie Wonder, Madonna, Bono and Gaye's daughter, Nona. The second tribute album, ''Marvin Is 60: A Tribute Album'', was released in 1999 on Motown in celebration of Gaye's 60th birthday. Released that June, the album featured Erykah Badu, D'Angelo and Will Downing. The respective artists released songs from the tribute album including covers of "Your Precious Love" and "You Sure Love to Ball" to R&B radio stations. R&B band Frankie Beverly & Maze based their 1989 album, ''Silky Soul'' on Gaye, who had served as the band's early mentor following their early years. The title track was recorded as a tribute to Gaye and interpolated Gaye's melody from "What's Going On". The song was released as a single and became a top-ten hit on the R&B chart. Marvin's daughter Nona was featured in the video. Upon reviewing her albums, ''Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814'' and ''janet.'', David Ritz compared Jackson's switching of topics from social issues to sensual material to that of Gaye's. Jazz composer Don Byron's album, ''Don Byron's String Quartet No. 2: Four Thoughts on Marvin Gaye, I-IV, A Tribute to the Life of Marvin Gaye'' was released by the string quartet Ethel on the album, ''Heavy'' (Innova, 2012).
