Steve Washington recorded this version of Smokey Robinson's "Whatever Makes You Happy" in the early 90s at the now defunct BeBop Studios in Rockville, MD. Legendary DC singer/songwriter/producer Al Johnson produced the track and provided some world-class background vocals.

The original "Whatever Makes You Happy" by the Miracles, and written by singing/songwriting genius Smokey Robinson, came out as the b-side to the monster hit "Mickey's Monkey" some time in the early 60s. "Whatever..." became what is known as a "turntable hit" and is beloved by Miracles fans far and wide.

This modernized version has a more contemporary groove and has been slowed down a bit which underscores the plaintive element of the lyric.

Enjoy...
