One-third of an amazing songwriting and production trio,
Eddie Holland hasn't been as successful on his own as when teamed with brother
Brian Holland and
Lamont Dozier. The trio wrote numerous hits for Motown acts through the '60s before departing in 1968. They formed their own label in 1970, Hot Wax/Invictus, and had success for a while with such acts as
The Chairmen Of The Board,
Laura Lee, and
the Honey Cone.
Eddie Holland scored his biggest hit as a solo artist back in 1962, with "Jamie" reaching number six on the
r&b charts and peaking at #30
pop. He recorded three more songs for Motown in the mid-'60s, but none of them were hits, and he then concentrated on songwriting and production. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
