Smokey Robinson, a true legend of R&B and soul music, delivered a captivating performance at a recent Tiny Desk concert. At 83 years old, Robinson's timeless falsetto shone as he treated the audience to classics like "Being With You" and "The Tears Of A Clown," a hit he co-wrote with Stevie Wonder. The concert also showcased his new album, Gasms, with tracks like the romantic "Beside You" and the standout sax solo in "If We Don't Have Each Other." Robinson closed the concert with the infectious "Cruisin'," bringing the audience together in a moment of musical connection.

Throughout his illustrious career, Robinson has not only been a key architect of the Motown sound but also a prolific songwriter, record producer, and former record executive. As the founder and frontman of The Miracles, he led the group to success with his songwriting and production skills before embarking on a solo career.
