Smokey Robinson 7-11 Slurpee Cup
From the collection of:
Allee Willis


Everything goes down smooth, Smokey style at 7-11. At the time, early in the stars cross-promoting with retail establishments 1970’s, I thought Smokey was too smooth to be on a cup. But I loved Slurpees, Big Gulps and such and forgave him with my first swig back. I still collect these cups. Grand Funk Railroad and The Fifth Dimension sit right next to Smokey on my desk holding pencils, tv remotes and the like, still working round the clock in the studio.
