Smokey Robinson and The Miracles 1957 - 1972, live



Smokey Robinson.  Pure genius  -  Mr. William Robinson.  And the Miracles.  Add him to my Genius List please.  This is another in the long line of great Double Live Albums.  And also check out the great Brittish vocalist and iconoclast from a bygone era - Bryan Ferry doing Smokey's song The Tracks of My Tears.  Bryan Ferry is coming to Chicago next month - sans Roxy Music.  Not sure who will be in his touring band and also not sure if he will do any songs from the Roxy canon.  Try this one too:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF9xfx-W_xA  And also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Hs-otJMic&feature=related  1957-1972 is two-record set as the group's final series of live concerts with original lead singer Smokey Robinson, recorded over a period of three days, July 14–16, during the 1972 National Parks Centennial, at the Carter Barron Amphitheater in Washington, D.C.
