Special Occasion is an album by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles released in 1968. It contains three Top 40 hits: "If You Can Want", "Yester Love", and "Special Occasion". The upbeat version of the Motown classic "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" is one of the album's interesting moments. Smokey also delivers a passionate dark cover of the Beatles' "Yesterday".
