The song swings, love it!

Are they Smokey robinson's miracles?

whatsgoingon said:

uhhh...yeah but before they were Smokey Robinson and the Miracles they were just "The Miracles"

Good pick, pill. This is a very, very cool song. Used to love this to death when I was little. Played the 45 untill it became a 43.

Yes and no. "Love Machine" was released as a single after Smokey left the group. Billy Griffin was the lead singer.

Interestingly enough, the group had only one pop #1 song with Smokey ("The Tears of a Clown") and one without him (this song).

another "classic" i just can't stand.

But wasn't Smokey wife part of the Miaracles too?

whatsgoingon said:

She was apart of the Miracles performing with them from 57 to 63, I believe. Starting in 1964, she onlt recorded with them in the studio but never performed until 1973's farwell concert that retired Smokey from the Miracles and introduced Billy.
