The film was absolutely terrible. It wasn't in theatres long. It was supposed to be "serious" but it starred Troy Donahue and no known actors. I never had the bad luck to see it. The song was used in the film, but I don't know if The Miracles' version is played in the film.

I never saw the film, "Country Music Holiday", which had included "Little Miss Ruby", a song sung by Eddie Holland on his first record release on Mercury in late 1958.

Smokey was reminded of the track on a UK TV show [[Jonathan Ross).
As I recall, Smokey denied knowledge of it!

Yes he did!I remember that. I had never heard of the movie until then. Still haven't seen it and don't intend to, but it was amusing to see Smokey's response to the question. Great song no question of that but it sounds like the movie is a real turkey.

Gives an insight as to how detached stars are from 'real' fans. They must meet 1,000s of BS ERS, but surely Smokey must know that fans have knowledge of, indeed, possess this track.

I didn't believe him for one second. I may still have this interview somewhere in the vaults. I met Smokey a few times and he was very nice but i think the word that you used "detached" is quite appropriate snakepit.

Too bad someone didn't show him the boxed set and play the song so he could hear himself singing it.

Can you just imagine if someone had done that?It would be priceless!

Judging by Smokey's facial expression these days, it might prove tricky to detect if he is thinking or feeling anything at all....:)

Yes he has had some work done. He looked fine to me before, but it is Smokey's face and Smokey's money and he can do the hell what he likes. Same goes for Mary Wilson who seems to have had some work done around her chin.As with Smokey i thought she looked just fine prior to it.

this was the flip side of "The Love I Saw In You Was Just a Mirage" .I don't think the movie even came out in Fla. I don't remember anything about the movie but I loved the record and when I first bought it I thought it was gonna be the A side.
