Pied Piper Productions

Detroit based soul production group, credited on labels as 'A Pied Piper Production'. When listed on labels as 'Pied Piper Productions' please consider using Pied Piper Productions, as the recording was likely leased by the production company to another label for release. Pied Piper Productions was a group of Detroit arrangers, writers, artists and musicians who unwittingly defined the Northern Soul style in their short 1965-1967 span. The main musicians – [a377626], Mike Terry, Joe Hunter and Herbie Williams – were original members of Motown studio crew the Funk Brothers. Pied Piper’s own imprint was Giant Records (16), the earlier Detroit version as opposed to the later Chicago label (for the Chicago label see Giant Records (3)).
