This probably has no bearing.
But it has been written that when R.Dean Taylor came to Motown he was taken for a time under the wings of HDH and especially Eddie Holland. A performer & writer, some propose {and I remember vaguely that R.Dean had stated so himself} that he helped write more songs with HDH than he is credited for.
R.Dean also mentions here:

how he wanted to learn all he could about producing.
Is it possible that HDH might have allowed R. Dean to take a stab at producing, even though he did not have a producer's contract??? If he did, having studied the style and techniques of HDH and having been influenced by them, could he replicate their touch?
