Under the news headline, “Bobby Rogers, founding member of the Motown group the Miracles, dies at 73,” sources confirmed this morning that Rogers died in Detroit after a long battle with sickness.
Bobby Rogers worked with Smokey Robinson as a songwriter, and together they founded the Miracles back in 1955. The popular Motown music group had several hit singles, including “I Second that Emotion” and “The Tears of a Clown.”
