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. 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.
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' 25-cut disc is the single most impressive one of Motown's Ultimate Collection series (which features 17 artists). 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. Import collection from the Motown legends, arguably the best single-disc compilation available on the market.
