The holiday season has started and The Smooth Operators (Martijn Soetens and I) have left for a cocktail bar on a tropical beach. Come go with us and enjoy our fruitfully mixed smooth drink!

One of the tracks is from A Quiet Storm by Smokey Robinson:

"The title track became the namesake for a music format. The album itself had three singles hit the charts. Arranged in an intermittent rhythm, "Baby That's Backatcha" ran up the Billboard R&B charts to number one inside 16 weeks."
