The Corsairs were an American doo-wop ensemble from La Grange, North Carolina.
The group consisted of the three Uzell brothers and their cousin, George Wooten. Initially they performed as The Gleems, and toured the East Coast, where they were overheard by Abner Spector. Changing their name in 1961 to The Corsairs, they released their first single, "Time Waits" b/w "It Won't Be a Sin" on Smash Records. Switching to Tuff Records- Official Site they released "Smoky Places", which became a nationwide hit after being picked up for national distribution by Chess Records, hitting #10 R&B and #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1962. The follow-up, "I'll Take You Home", peaked at #62, and they continued releasing singles until 1964, none of which managed to hit the charts.
"Smoky Places" was used in the 1994 movie, 'There Goes My Baby', and in the 2006 Sopranos episode "Mayham."
Excerpts from the film 'Round Midnight (directed by Bertrand Tavernier) featuring Dexter Gordon, Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, François Cluzet ...

Only heard this from the Sopranos, with a very short exposure, but that's enough to search for this and be played multiple times.

i associate this song with our friday nite school dances. i started high school in 1960 and this song came out in 61, about the time i started going to these dances. this song, tuff by ace cannon and stay by maurice williams and the zodiacs all bring back memories of those great times.

Sometime in the early 60's, the man changing jukebox records at my grandfather's tavern in Buffalo let me have this 45. Regrettably, I gave it away to a cousin years later. Then my wife found a vintage collector edition and surprised me with it for Christmas in the late 80's. She played it as background music while we were opening presents. As I rocked in my chair I suddenly realized what was playing. I stopped rocking and exclaimed, "That's it"! We had a good laugh.

The title of this song would have been more acceptable at the time when this song was on charts given that more of the adult population smoked cigarettes at the time.
