More about The Miracles

About

The Miracles are an American rhythm and blues group, notable as the first successful act for Berry Gordy's Motown Record Corporation. Their 1960 song, "Shop Around" became Motown's first million-selling hit record, and the group went on to become one of Motown's "signature acts" of the 1960s, and one of the most important and influential groups in music history. Formed in 1955 by William "Smokey" Robinson, Warren "Pete" Moore and Ronald "Ronnie" White, the most famous and consistent lineup of the Miracles was that of Robinson, White, Moore, Bobby Rogers, Claudette Robinson and Marvin "Marv" Tarplin. Referred to as Motown's "soul supergroup", The Miracles are multiple Grammy Hall of Fame Inductees, and inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, The Doo-Wop Hall of Fame, The Vocal Group Hall of Fame, and received a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2009.
