Smokey Robinson - Hi We're the Miracles

Digitally re-mastered edition of this Soul classic. As the title might imply, this was the first album released by The Miracles, the group that would make a major star out of Smokey Robinson. It is also the very first album released on the Tamla label and thus the first album released by an Motown company. As chief songwriter for the group (and later for a slew of Motown artists), Smokey penned hit after hit, with 'Shop Around' becoming something of an early signature song for the group. The album also features Motown founder Berry Gordy on production duties; the teaming of Gordy and Robinson was one that helped quickly establish Motown as a musical force to be reckoned with.
