I met you once in 1965 for about 15 seconds in the office at Sunset and Vine. I came in for an audition with The Valaquons. I love telling people this. Shop Around was my first 45. Cool to see you doing your thing.

So at 6 years old I started learning words to songs and singing them in private in practice of learning them. I remember my 1st was Brook Benton, Sam Cook, The Platters, then I heard of Motown and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. From that time until this, I have learned every song he ever sang. The gift allowed me sing everything by (him and) Eddie Kendricks (with the Tempts 1st then solo). By the time Michael came out I was singing on the street corners of Cleveland Ohio at 9 years with older guys in their teens who were drinking wine calling me to sing Smokey. But I was singing Smokey with them like Michael would. I sang all Mike's music up until his radical changes. That fire changed him forever. I think about the good times. Anyway, by 18 I was singing with Robert Paige and the Cleveland Orchestra classical music. I was in the school choir

I graduated from high school with a music scholarship and set it aside to do stage acting. By 22 I was being personally mentored by Marjorie Taylor of A&M Records who was the VP over A&R. She was teaching me Italian singing to prepare me to be a popstar like Michael Jackson. I got up to the 5th in Nicola Vaccai and was called by the Lord to be a Prophet after the order Jeremiah the weeping Prophet. But that showed me not to love this life Smokey Robinson Loves (t)his life so much that he is not acceptable to the kingdom of heaven. Finally while I was at Paramount studios (@32 yrs old) for 18 mos. with my 8th and 9th Mentors both vice- presi- dents of 1) Larry Albucher over feature films and 2) John Farraro over Distribution the Almighty call me to be Seer. So I see if you want to save your soul avoid Entertainment

I thank the Lord for your career Smoke. I learned to talk again bc I had a brain concussion at 5 and died on the way to the hospital. They let me go to sleep and I was DOA at the hospital. The hospital revived me and let me awake for 48 hours (instead of 24). And I went to sleep after that for 3 days and woke up and could not talk. When I went to school they put me in a speech therapy class with a bunch of studdering kids. This is 1st grade. I was sent home twice by the therapy teacher with a note to my other. The first one said basically to my mother, I need to see you about your son. So we went to school with my mom the next day. I overheard my mom saying to her that I had died and gotten revived. After that I swore I became her class pet. The 2nd note said, your son cant talk in class but he can sing. So have him sing when he wants to talk. That was to be The Hand (Yad in Hbr) of my Heavenly Father to keep me out of Entertainment. When I sang they laffed so I stopped singing in front of anyone. It's not like they could make me talk or sing. But they would laff bc they liked it. I thought they were making fun of me. I couldn't tell them that.

Hey Smokey, long time no talk. Glad to see you doing well as always! Would love to show what I have been doing over the years as you are one of my main influences. Keep the great energy coming! Thank you so very much giving my first start!

Smokey is THE BEST!! I've rarely missed a concert. Last time he played at the Broward Center in Fort Lauderdale, I sat in the very front row ..dead center..and he sang " I love Your Face" to me. It was truly a wonderful experience. God bless you Smokey.

I love Smokey because I feel he's been in my life musically since More Love. I love that song and that is when I fell for Smokey. I went to one of your show's and fell in love all over again OOh Baby, Baby. I hope to meet you one day Smokey.
