Paul Says: 

"This has been a long time coming. I consider the songwriting team of Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland - typically just referred to as Holland-Dozier-Holland, one of the greatest songwriting entities of all time, right up there with the likes of Lennon-McCartney and Bob Dylan. They wrote so many worthy songs that I've made seven albums for my Covered songwriter series. I believe that's the most so far, just beating out the songwriting duo of Gerry Goffin & Carole King with six albums.
"If you think about the dozens and dozens of Motown classic hits from the 1960s, Holland-Dozier-Holland wrote most of them. Unfortunately, they left the Motown company in 1968 due to a disagreement about their role and how much they should be paid. But they formed their own record companies and continued to write many hits well into the 1970s. Their collaboration slowly fell apart that decade, but they still had some individual successes well after the 1970s, even into the 2000s."
