    I never noticed the Miracles cool dance steps till this song and "Do It" came out. Was it one of the group who came up with the choreography? Two great post Smokey, songs.

    I am not sure who came up with the choregraphy, but it looks like the work of Cholly Atkins to me.

    So funny watching this and then the early Motortown revues with them stumbling around the stage.

    the miracles without smokey just never worked for me. i could take the temptations with dennis edwards until eddie kendricks ducked out. the only group that held it together after their lead singer left was the terrell lead supremes, but after jean left i was not impressed. the video here of the miracles is the antithesis of everything i liked about the smokey led miracles. it hurts to watch this much unnecessary movement. the miracles were about economy!
