About this photograph
Marvin Gaye, Royal Albert Hall, London, UK, 1979 by David Corio
"Marvin was performing at the Albert Hall and photographers weren’t allowed in for the show. I went to the stagedoor two hours before the concert and tried to convince security that I worked for the Daily Mirror and had special permission despite having no press credentials. I was 19 and so felt I could get away with it. Eventually they got so sick of me they let me in." - David Corio
