* Edsel presents the fourth set of re-releases from the Holland-Dozier-Holland catalogue of recordings, originally issued on the Invictus and Hot Wax labels. Set up by the famed songwriting team after they left Motown, this important catalogue features albums by Chairmen Of The Board, Freda Payne, Parliament, Lamont Dozier, Laura Lee, the Honey Cone, Ruth Copeland and many more.
* Although the individual contents of these two Greatest Hits albums have been reissued many times in the ensuing years, they have never been reissued as albums until now. Edsel is delighted to augment the two original track listings with a selection of sides that represent the whole history of the two labels - some of which were actually as big as the hits that featured on the original long playing vinyl albums.
*Stand-out songs amongst the 48 tracks include the # 1 worldwide hit, Freda Payne's "Band Of Gold", Chairmen Of The Board's "Give Me Just A Little More Time" and "Everything's Tuesday", The Honey Cone's US # 1 "Want Ads".
* The booklet is fully annotated by HDH authority Tony Rounce, and features many rare singles labels.
