Smokey & Friends is an album of duets from legendary Motown icon and Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Smokey Robinson. Produced by Randy Jackson, this 2014 album features an all-star guest list including Elton John, James Taylor, Steven Tyler, Sheryl Crow, Jessie J, John Legend, Ledisi and more, performing updated version of Robinson's classic songs reimagined as duets. As a teenager collecting soul records, Elton John recalls he was awed by Robinson’s "most amazing voice" and lyrics that were "so great and direct; so simple and heartfelt."
"I was lucky enough to pick The Tracks Of My Tears because I’ve always loved the song, probably one of the best lyrics of all time ... the greatest pop song ever written."
- Elton John
