Smokey Robinson is one of the founding voices of Motown and among the most gifted songwriters in the history of American popular music. Born William Robinson in Detroit in 1940, he led The Miracles to some of the label's earliest hits and served as a Motown vice-president, shaping its sound from the inside. His sweet, floating tenor and effortless falsetto carried classics like 'The Tracks of My Tears', 'The Tears of a Clown', 'Ooo Baby Baby' and, in his solo years, the silky 'Cruisin'' and 'Being with You'. Beyond his own records, he wrote or co-wrote enduring standards for other Motown stars, including 'My Girl' for The Temptations and 'My Guy' for Mary Wells, earning admiration as a poet of romance. His arrangements pair gentle, swaying rhythms, warm horns, chiming guitars and lush backing harmonies with lyrics of tenderness, longing and playful wordplay. Elegant, romantic and instantly warm, he defined a graceful strain of soul. For sweet, melodic Motown soul led by a high, tender tenor and shimmering harmonies, Smokey Robinson is an essential reference.
