Take a Minute

Smokie

Polished pop-rock built on warm acoustic guitars and those legendary three-part harmonies. A reflective, late-career record that feels like a comfortable conversation.

Moments Worth Listening For
The self-referential nod to their history in Sally’s Song with those signature stacked harmonies.
The gentle acoustic strumming that opens the title track, setting a patient, reflective pace.
The way the chorus of Nothing Hurts Like a Broken Heart swells with a classic 70s melodic sensibility.
