No. 6 Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier & Eddie Holland
This trio is yet another example of the hitmaking talent at Motown Records during the Hitsville era. Basically taking creative control of label mainstays like Martha Reeves, The Four Tops and the Supremes, Holland-Dozier-Holland became one of the most successful songwriting teams of all time.
Notable songs: “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch),” “Reach Out (I’ll Be There),” “Baby I Need Your Lovin” (The Four Tops), “Stop! In the Name of Love,” “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” (The Supremes)
