Released by Motown’s subsidiary Tamla Records in 1967, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles album Make It Happen features ballads such as the hit singles "The Love I Saw in You Was Just a Mirage" and "More Love," as well as the up-tempo "The Tears of a Clown" co-written by Stevie Wonder and his producer Hank Cosby. Three years after the album's release, "The Tears of a Clown" was issued as a single, and charted at #1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and UK Singles Chart. As a result, Make It Happen was reissued as The Tears of a Clown in 1970. The album received a ****½ AllMusic rating, with John Bush stating that this is “the most underrated Miracles LP of the '60s,”, but it “features a spate of great songs, including three or four that really should've been hits.”
