Twenty six top ten hits. They charted hits in doo-wop, soul, R&B, and disco. When Smokey Robinson topped the charts with 'Shop Around' in 1960, Motown had arrived and the series of hits following 'Shop Around' paved the way for the rest of the Detroit sound.

William "Smokey" Robinson actually handled most of the song writing duties early on in Motown's history. Smokey wrote chart toppers for The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, The Marvelettes, and Mary Wells. Before the Holland-Dozier-Holland brilliance, there was Smokey.

Here are Smokey Robinson and the Miracles with the song that broke Motown to the world, 'Shop Around'
