Robinson was also extremely active at Motown as a songwriter and producer for other acts. The #1 singles “My Guy” (Mary Wells) and “My Girl” (Temptations) were both Robinson songs and productions (the latter with fellow Miracle Ronnie White). Smokey also did some excellent work with The Marvelettes and Marvin Gaye.
In 1967, The Miracles became “Smokey Robinson and the Miracles,” and continued topping the charts with “Baby, Baby Don’t Cry” and “Tears of A Clown.”
In 1991, after thirty years with Motown, Smokey Robinson left Motown to sign with SBK Records. He continues to appear at industry gatherings and events.
He is not only a great songwriter but also an extraordinary entertainer. His show, still constantly touring the nation to sold out crowds, has brought joy to his listeners. His songs of the past allow many to remember the times gone by – the good and the bad. He doesn’t just give you a selection of hits; his entire show is a production itself – with lights, effects, script and music.
