It may surprise many music fans that a 74-year-old veteran of the Motown records soul music era is still recording and touring five decades later. William “Smokey” Robinson has just released “Smokey and friends” a duets album that pairs him with an all-star cast of current and veteran artists.

The album, released this month by US label, Verve Records, is produced by Randy Jackson (not Michael’s brother), who is known to worldwide TV audiences as the mentor on the popular talent show, American Idol.
