Just a Touch away from Great, January 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Blame It on Love & All the Great Hits (Audio CD)
For the die-hard Smokey fan, this CD is well worth the price, mainly due to a handful of titles; 'Blame It On Love,' and 'Tell Me Tomorrow,' (two very good songs) are difficult to find on CD. 'Don't Play Another Love Song,' 'Just Like You', and 'Just a Touch Away' (originally recorded as a duet with High Inergy) are found only on this collection and they are all wonderful.
The remaining tunes can be found on just about every other Smokey Robinson Greatest hits album.
What would've made this compilation superb is the addition of such hits as 'Quiet Storm,' 'Virgin Man,' 'Mother's Son,' 'Best For Last,' 'And I Don't Love You' and 'Train Of Thought.' Great songs that all got air play.

Nice collection of his lesser-known songs., September 9, 2005
I was lucky enough to find this CD at a local shop at a good price and its musical selection is quite good. This collection focuses exclusively on his late '70s and early '80s ballads--while definitely not definitive, it serves its purpose. Smokey is one of the best singer/songwriters of all time and this fine anthology allows us to revisit some of his lesser-known (but still gorgeous) love songs. Buy it if you can find it!
