Really bummed about this one. Frank Wilson was on the same level as Norman Whitfield.

I really enjoy his production on Rare Earth's take of "Chained".

Norman was good...but from 64-67 Holland/Dozier/Holland wrote and produced ten #1 singles for The Supremes alone. They are still considered the most successful vocal groups ever.
