Great CD; Great Service
With the talent that God has blessed Smokey with, all he had to do was get to know Jesus and let Him use him. I am very pleased with the CD's content.
Also, I am pleasently surprised with the service I received from the seller; especially in view of the price. This has been a satisfying experience, to which, I look forward again.


Awful - Smokey what was you thinking?
I love good spiritual music but this CD lacks continuity. This has to be one of the worst CD's I have ever heard. I don't even know what category to put it in. It is not gospel, not contemporary Christian, just a bunch of hodge podge. I don't know what Smokey was thinking. I eventually gave the CD to one of his biggest fans and she didn't like it. Pray about it long Smokey before you make another spiritual CD like this one. This was a disaster.


Miracles Happen
The message is as potent and theologically sound as "Slow Train Coming" and socially relevant as "What's Going On". This is absolutely one of the greatest Gospel albums by a secular star ever. His resolve of the "Human issue/Spiritual answer" equation is reminiscent of Van Morrison's Hymns. And yet it is pure Smokey. John Lennon once called Robinson "The greatest song writer in America". Now he has penned some gospel classics. Whether you are a fan of Smokey Robinson or Gospel music. This one is a must. .


Cool but not what I'm looking 4
I know it's hard to try it out and give a short listen. I definitely need 2 save my money on this one 'cuz I haven't give it much thought. I think he needs to work hard next time in order 4 him to deepen more into his singing a lil bit while singing gospel. Believe me I'm still a long-time Smokey Robinson fan and never thought he had a gospel album out until day 1. Keep it up, Smokey. Look forward 4 the next album 2 drop out.


Inspirational and Uplifting!
I'm not a big gospel person. . in fact I passed this CD by several times before I finally bought it. Don't make the same mistake!!! This is a BEAUTIFUL lp. Contemporary inspirational music. . . not your typical gospel at all. Smokey's voice has aged to perfection and is still velvety smooth but now it's richer with greater depth. The writing is excellent. "I prayed on it" is a materpiece. Some of the songs really rock. . . "Standing on Jesus", "Gang Bangin". I can't get "Road to Damascus" out of my head! Signs of great songwriting - NO? Buy this! .
