Time Out For Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

Time Out for Smokey Robinson & the Miracles is a 1969 album by Motown group Smokey Robinson & the Miracles. It reached #25 on the Billboard Pop Album chart, and contains four pop top 40 singles: "Doggone Right", "Abraham, Martin & John", "Here I Go Again" and the top ten pop smash hit "Baby, Baby Don't Cry". Time Out also features covers of Motown songs such as "For Once in My Life" and the Robinson-penned songs "My Girl" and "The Composer". Miracles members Marv Tarplin, Pete Moore and Ronnie White were also co-writers on several of the album's tracks, along with Motown staff songwriters Al Cleveland, Ron Miller and Terry Johnson. Miracle Pete Moore also co-produced two of the album's tracks, a prelude to his later production of the Miracles' massively successful platinum-selling City of Angels album of a few years later. The Miracles' Time Out album was originally released on CD in 1986, and again in 2001 coupled with their album, Four in Blue.

    Frank W. Wead (1895?–1947)

    Don’t know what time it is. We don’t know, don’t we?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    his mouth redeemed
    His insufficient eyes, forever sad:
    In them there was no life-glimpse, good or bad,
    Nor joy nor passion in them ever gleamed;
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    I do not think our successes can compete with those of Lourdes. There are so many more people who believe in the miracles of the Blessed Virgin than in the existence of the unconscious.
