The songwriting guidance of Lamont Dozier

This video looks at the songwriting process of Motown legend Lamont Dozier. Using the songwriting methodology Lamont employed with his writing partners Eddie and Brian Holland while working at Motown, writing for groups like The Supremes and the Four Tops, I examine the lessons in songwriting Lamont has learned throughout his long career as a creator. The research for this video comes Lamont's autobiography How Sweet It Is.
