Review

This was recorded in October 1963, when the Miracles still included Claudette Robinson, Smokey's wife, in the lineup; she sings lead on "Let It Snow." Smokey contributes one original, the mid-tempo "Christmas Everyday," that stands as one of the finest Motown seasonal favorites, and one of Smokey's most memorable performances of his long career. ~ Dennis MacDonald, All Music Guide
