The Definitive Performances (1963–1987)

The Definitive Performances (1963–1987) is an anthology of performances by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles. It was produced by Reelin' in the Years Productions and the Universal Music Group International, in conjunction with Motown. In addition to the musical performances, this DVD also features the first – ever in depth interview with original Miracles members Smokey Robinson, Bobby Rogers, and Pete Moore. Strangely, original members Marv Tarplin & Claudette Robinson are not present, but are mentioned throughout the disc. (Original member Ronnie White is now deceased.) The disc also features 2 hit songs by the group featuring Smokey's replacement, Billy Griffin, and three of Smokey's Post- Miracles solo hits. During the interview, the three Miracles discuss the history of the group, the formation of Motown, and detailed stories behind the creation of some of their greatest hits. According to David Peck, producer of the disk for Reelin' In The Years, The Miracles' "Definitive DVD" has been awarded Certified Gold status by the RIAA.
