Title: Ultimate Collection Artist: Smokey Robinson and the Miracles Label: Universal Uk Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 731453085725 Genre: Soul/R & B Release Date: 2000-12-15 Number of Discs: 1 Additional Details: UNITED KINGDOM - IMPORT
Import collection from the Motown legends, arguably the best single-disc compilation available on the market. Combining Smokey's endlessly inventive twists on romance (good and bad) with the Miracles' handful of straight-up party hits, it showcases one of American pop's most sure-footed and touching acts. The frontman's prowess as singer, writer, and producer lights up each of these single mixes; less-celebrated tracks like "My Girl Has Gone," "(You Can) Depend on Me," and "The Love I Saw in You Was Just a Mirage" stand as tall as the many oldies-radio staples featured here. While he and the Miracles remain one of the Motown label's most successful acts, Smokey is also known for his top-notch songwriting skills for other label mates as well as his own successful solo career. 25 tracks.
