"When Smokey Sings" by ABC, and Spandau Ballet had that line about "Listening to Marvin," in "True."

Speaking of which, Eazy-E from NWA's "Eightball": "Put in the old tape/Marvin Gaye's Greatest Hits/turned the shit up had the bass col' rompin'/cruisin' through the Eastside south of Compton."

Spandau Ballet and NWA united at last!

John McLaughlin is the featured performer on "John McLaughlin"! Isn't that a little different?

True, but it's on Miles' album, Miles got the songwriting credit, and Miles (presumably) got to name the track. It's definitely some sort of tribute.
