I have always been a huge fan of HDH, and I was as excited to see a new composition/production by HDH as I was for a new release by the Supremes or Four Tops. Towards the end of their time at Motown, I thought their productions got more intricate, different, and very interesting [[Reflections, Forever Came Today, 7 Rooms of Gloom, Bernadette). After they left Motown, I anxiously awaited their new productions at Invictus / Hot Wax. While I liked them and dutifully bought the albums of Chairmen of the Board and Freda Payne, to me, there was something missing from these new compositions and productions. They did not seem as innovative and did not seem to have the punch that their productions had at Motown. I am not sure what it was, the acts were good, the musicians in many instances were the same, yet something seemed to be missing.

Just curious to hear what other people think?
