Motown legend Smokey Robinson delves into the Great American Songbook on “Timeless Love,” an album of standards due June 13 via Universal’s New Door imprint. It is Robinson’s first non-gospel or holiday album since 1999’s “Intimate,” which debuted at No. 28 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
The new set features renditions of such favorites as “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “Tea for Two,” “Love Is Here To Stay,” “Speak Low,” “Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words),” “Moody’s Mood for Love” and a blend of Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne’s “Time After Time” with Cyndi Lauper’s pop hit of the same name.
