Dozier, along with Brian & Eddie Holland, wrote or produced many of the Detroit label’s greatest hits, including:

Reach Out, I’ll Be There, by The Four Tops
Baby Love, by The Supremes
Heat Wave, by Martha Reeves and the Vandellas
How Sweet It Is, by Marvin Gaye
This Old Heart of Mine, by The Isley Brothers
Give Me Just A Little More Time, by The Chairmen of the Board
Band of Gold, by Freda Payne
Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me), by The Doobie Brothers

…and countless others.  8)

Holland-Dozier-Holland was a monster in its heyday.  8)

Sad to hear this!  He along with the Holland brothers wrote a great big portion of Motown's finest (in particular with the Supremes and Four Tops).  I've also liked several of his 70's solo tunes.  He will be missed  :\'(  :\'(  :\'(

R.I.P. Lamont Dozier
