Biografía:
Smokey Robinson (1940) era el lider y compositor de este grupo, que caracterizaba como pocos al sello Tamla Motown, Motown es una abreviatura de motor town, en referencia a la ciudad de Detroit.
El sello Motown lo dirigía Berry Gordy y Smokey Robinson era uno de sus artistas insignia junto a The supremes, Marvin Gaye o The tempations.
Quizá de todos los éxitos que tuvieron the miracles en la primera mitad de los años 60, el más representativo es "you really got a hold on me", también muy conocido en la versión de The Beatles.
