For some reason P-Vine Records subtitled this &The New Lamont Dozier Album,& a misleading title since these tracks were first released on Invictus Records as by Holland & Dozier. Dozier doesn't even lead &Slipping Away& -- Holland does, but the best tracks, &Why Can't We Be Lovers& and &New Breed Kinda Woman,& are classic Dozier. Though he later had a few hits on ABC Records, Dozier recorded his most accessible music while at Invictus under the artistry of Holland & Dozier; Eddie Holland, strangely, never sung with the duo, despite having some acclaim as a solo artist before these '70s recordings.
