One of the greatest. Influenced a lot of r&b groups and some of the British invasion bands especially the beatles. John Lennons early songs based on Smokeys writing
And my personal humble opinion I think Smokey Robinson is a genius I used to always see Ronnie on the Miracles swing it is Golf Club at Palmer Park where we was going to the back nine to play I remember seeing Claudette pull up in Smokies Jag it was beige we was all sitting in the front of the clubhouse waiting on my father to come out of the front nine his name is Nelson Crawford did Claudette get out the Jag with a full length mink coat I turned to my mother her name is Ernestine Crawford and ask her who is the fox in the mink coat she said that Smokey Robinson's wife and she came over and greeted my mother and then Bobby of the Contours walked up and look at my golf glove and said little Nell you got the wrong golf glove on you fly what you golf gloves should be red I had on a white golf club took me to Pro Shop and ask Chris who was the pro there to give me a red golf glove Palmer Park was the place
Smokey Robinson did the wrong thing when he messed around on Claudette she is beautiful and she looks a lot better than the wife he has now now that's Carma and he still thinks he got it going on
