Last week it was announced that Sir Elton John will be joining Smokey on “The Tracks Of My Tears” for the SMOKEY AND FRIENDS duets album, due out this September on Verve Records. Now, on the 49th anniversary (June 23rd) of the original The Miracles’ release, we are happy to share with you an audio clip from Smokey and Elton’s recording.
Hi… We're the Miracles is the first album by Motown's first group, The Miracles, released on Motown's Tamla subsidiary label in the summer of 1961. It also has the distinction of being the first album ever released by the Motown Record Corporation. The album features several songs that played an important role in defining The Motown Sound and establishing songwriters Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy.
