    I believe Lamont was going through a divorce at the time of both "Out Here" and "Black Bach". Not sure if Scherrie was his wife or not, but I know the contents are about a failed marriage. Being a Detroit resident maybe you can give me some clarification.

    As far as I can remember, Scherrie was with Lamont through most of 1974. She joined the Supremes in the Fall of 1973.

    Quinn, to be honest, I was a teenager at that time and was not thinking about Lamont Dozier and Scherrie Payne like that. I know that when he ran into Mary Wilson at a party in LA during the latter part of 1973, she told him she was looking for a new singer for the Supremes. Lamont recommended his girlfriend Scherrie Payne. So that tells me that they were a couple at least during that time.

    Quinn, no. Lamont went through a divorce in 1968. He married his current wife Barbara in 1980. So between 1968-80 he was single which is during the period he was with Scherrie and also when both "Out Here [[1973) and "Black Bach" [[1974) were released.
