Lulu continues a profile of distinctive soul tenor and songwriter William "Smokey" Robinson, who until 1972 led Motown quartet the Miracles, with hits such as Shop Around (Motown's first million seller), You've Really Got a Hold on Me, The Tracks of My Tears, I Second That Emotion and The Tears of a Clown.
