As the title might imply, this was the first album released by The Miracles, the group that would make a major star out of Smokey Robinson. It is also the very first album released on the Tamla label and thus the first album released by an Motown company. As chief songwriter for the group (and later for a slew of Motown artists), Smokey penned hit after hit, with 'Shop Around' becoming something of an early signature song for the group. The album also features Motown founder Berry Gordy on production duties; the teaming of Gordy and Robinson was one that helped quickly establish Motown as a musical force to be reckoned with.

One of their earliest released songs is 1959's "Bad Girl" a beautiful and rich doo-wop song. Their full debut album, 1961's Hi, We're The Miracles is a great, harmony-driven set of doo-wop style soul. Smokey Robinson handles a lot of the songwriting and of course, singing in his trademark falsetto. A sad slower paced love lost joint, "Who's Lovin' You" rings true for all who have messed up in a relationship and regret it. My main jam is the lyrically rich metaphor filled, upbeat, string laden "Way Over There." The complex string arrangement here is simply marvelous as is the cool vibe of the song and lyrics. A cool joint is "Won't You Take Me Back" is a nice, guitar ridden, slow rolling joint with a nice doo-wop style harmony. Another wonderful doo-wop song here is the "After All" lead by Smokey's wife Claudette, and she handles her own extremely well here! Of course, the most famous joint here is the fast paced "Shop Around," which is still heard today on retail store commercials. Of course, the song is not about literally shopping; it deals with keeping your options open in love before committing and settling down. Make sure you buy into a woman or a man who is true. "Money" is an upbeat pop-savvy cover song of Motown's own Barrett Strong. "Depend On Me" is a true jam. It is a slow jam that is self-explanatory. One thing about the song, listen to the emotion and vulnerability in Smokey's voice; vulnerability is what makes soul jams so worthwhile. He is a great purveyor of emotion, which he handles so delicately with his voice. The group harmony also complements his vocals making for a undisputable classic. To put it all in perspective, Hi We're... is a true doo-wop gem full of style, class, and emotion. This is the start of some great music by the group. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ IT TAKES ME BACK *by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2012* I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM FOR 1 REASON: TO GET A SONG ON IT BY CLAUDETTE ROBINSON CALLED "AFTER ALL" I'VE LOVED THIS SONG FOR DECADES, SINCE I FIRST HEARD IT ON THE 33RPM LP THAT I BOUGHT WHEN I LIVED IN N.Y.C. THE REST OF THESE SONGS I'VE TAPED FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES MANY TIMES. BUT I COULD NEVER HEAR "AFTER ALL"; NOT EVEN ON OLDIES RADIO STATIONS IN NEW YORK & IN MARYLAND, WHERE I NOW RESIDE, EVEN WHEN THEY ALLOWED YOU TO CALL IN REQUESTS. SO FINALLY, IN DESPERATION, I TURNED TO GOOGLE & CAME UP WITH IT ON THIS ALBUM. SUCCESS!! AND HAPPINESS. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Miracles Say A Big Hello To The Motown Sound *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2015* From my understanding up until the early 60's? The first few years of Motown were still thinking in terms of cutting 45 RPM singles. This was pretty much the way rhythm & blues,soul and pop music in general was being presented at the time. Three minute songs that could get on the radio. Yet in the meantime the long playing album medium allowed for these sides to be compiled into full length presentations that could potentially take on a conceptual life of their own one day. As the group that helped form this iconic label? This was the Miracles first full length album. And in retrospect says a lot more than perhaps it intended to. "Who's Lovin' You",a Smokey standard later made famous by the Jackson 5 and "Depend On Me" are both stripped down,bluesy scaling rhythm guitar based soul ballads while "Heart Like Mine" and "Way Over There" are melodic Calypso based soul-pop that present a variation on Sam Cooke's composition approach. "Shop Around" and "Don't Leave Me" both present that sound in a more soul/jazz instrumental context from the Funk Brothers-matched with the call and response lead/harmony vocals. "'Cause I Love You" and "Your Loove" both find Smokey in a down in the groove blues mode with some excellent piano from Earl Van Dyke. Ronnie White takes his smooth baritone croon as the lead on the mid tempo soul ballad "Won't You Take Me Back" while the heavy gospel wail of Claudette on "After All" finds a musically doo-wop mode. "Money",perhaps Motown's first standard is done up in somewhat more relaxed style than the original but still with the same uptempo stomp. The wonderful thing about this 1961 album is that it showcases the Motown sound in its rudimentary,trial and error stages. On the hit singles,the sound is already well well developed. Yet it also showcases the sounds roots in the doo-wop balladry of classic street corner group singing. The bluesy taking it back to church ethic of rootsy late 50's soul is also prominent. This might be one of the labels most important early albums,as it showcases the building blocks of the soon to be sound of young America. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/18247875-hi-were-the-miracles](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/18247875-hi-were-the-miracles) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
