It has always amazed me how much music Smokey Robinson has written, produced and recorded; between 1961 and 1987 he released no less than one album EVERY year [[as a member and lead singer of The Miracles and then as a solo artist) which is absolutely incredible!

However, was this TOO MUCH?

As solo artists [[in the '70s and '80s) Stevie and Marvin had LPs out every couple of years, and such albums have come to be seen as nothing less than masterpieces!

So, do you think Smokey should have maybe worked a bit longer on each album, and made them better overall?
What do you think of Smokey's solo career? Did he prioritise quantity over quality?
