AllMusic[1]

Changing All the Time is the second studio album by the English rock band Smokie, released in September 1975.[2]

Early pressings of the album had been made with the original band's name "Smokey", but in November 1975 it was announced that the name would be altered to "Smokie" in order to avoid confusion with soul legend Smokey Robinson. All later copies of the album would bear the changed spelling.[2]
