Step into the authentic early Motown sound with Cookin’ With The Miracles, the second studio album by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, originally released in 1961 on the Tamla label. Featuring Smokey Robinson’s unmistakably smooth vocals and songwriting contributions from Robinson and Motown founder Berry Gordy, the album represents a cornerstone in Motown’s musical evolution.

The album blends upbeat R&B grooves with tender, emotional ballads. Charting singles such as “Ain’t It Baby,” “Everybody’s Gotta Pay Some Dues,” and “Mighty Good Lovin’” showcase the young group’s growing talent, while the heartfelt “Broken Hearted” and the jazzy Gershwin cover “Embraceable You” highlight their versatility. “That’s The Way I Feel” later gained wider recognition through its appearance in the acclaimed 1964 film Nothing But a Man.

Smokey Robinson, one of the most influential figures in American music, led The Miracles from 1955 to 1972 and became a defining force in Motown as a singer, writer and producer. His numerous accolades include two Hollywood Walk of Fame stars and the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize.

This limited 180-gram turquoise marbled vinyl edition brings the album’s soulful warmth to life in stunning audiophile quality—a must-have for fans of Motown, R&B, and vintage vinyl.
