A few months ago I read and enjoyed his autobiography.

Lamont Dozier (recording as Lamont Anthony):

Let's Talk it Over (1960)

Popeye (1961)

[Adder]

WOW...my Silvertone transistor radio and me jammed to all of those!

Never knew.

Thanks, Mr. Dozier! RIP

So many classics. Deserves to mentioned with all the great songwriters.

These music deaths are sadly coming fast and furious these days.

This was my favorite Dozier song from the summer of 1974, despite the gratuitous reference to Nixon and Watergate.

Fish Ain't Bitin"

Anyway, so many music artists from our past are dying that we will soon run out of musical artists to mourn.

After all, I can't see myself mourning the deaths of more contemporary artists like Snoopy Dogg Dogg, Tenacious D or that one woman who sang with half her clothes off.

Maybe I'll mourn for Lana Del Rey but hopefully she's still got some decades (and hopefully albums) ahead of her. I like her music even though it depresses me sometimes.

I remember many of the songs from the 1960’s.
Their songs will be played forever.

I cannot remember one of today’s songs.

Those songs basically defined the Motown sound in the 60’s, at least for me.

[D_Idaho]

Literally, the soundtrack of my youth. RIP

[A Navy Vet]

He and the other two were immortalized in the HBO? special Hitsville: The Making of Motown. Best documentary on Motown ever. Barry Gordy and Smokey Robinson narrated it on camera.
