EPISODE SUMMARY:

A great many of the awards given to artists may be superficial and ultimately meaningless. But consistent recognition over an entire career does count for something. And there are few musicians who have been heaped with as much praise as singer Smokey Robinson and his band The Miracles. Their smooth soul sound full of heartbreak and desire has appealed to millions of people for decades, including comedian and five-time repeat guest Wayne Federman.
