Smokey Robinson was born in Detroit back in 1940.
He recorded several hits with The Miracles and later as a solo artist.
He wrote The Temptations' "My girl" and The Beatles recorded "You really got a hold on me"!
Robinson was a vital force in "The Motown Sound" that dominated the pop charts for such a long time.
What's my favorite Smokey tune? It's gotta be "More love".
