LOS ANGELES--Motown will continue its new policy of using independent distributors who can add fresh insights into artists styles and material, and will build its staff of house producers at the same time.
Herb Belkin, vice president, creative services, calls the bringing in of independents from time to time a good move "into an area in which we had not been particularly adventuresome before. But we also have a talented array of producers already associated with the label such as Brian and Eddie Holland, Hal Davis, Leon Ware and Jeffrey Bowen."
Independent producers and artists who have scored high on the charts in recent months include Van McCoy with David ruffin, Norman Harris with Eddie Kendricks, and Michael Cuscuna and Mark Myerson with Luther Allison.
