70'S R&B, SOUL & FUNK COLLECTOR'S REISSUES

This quintessential Elemental Music reissue presents the first solo album by Motown legend Smokey Robinson after his departure from The Miracles: Smokey. It was originally released on Motown Records’ Tamla subsidiary label in 1973, and features the single “Sweet Harmony”, which was his tribute to his former singing partners in The Miracles: Bobby Rogers, Pete Moore and Ronnie White. The album was arranged by Dave Blumberg, Gene Page and Willie Hutch.
