Filed under: News , R.I.P. Courtesy of UME BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) - Motown songwriter-producer Deke Richards has died at a hospice at age 68. Richards, whose real name was Dennis Lussier, died Sunday at the Whatcom Hospice House, Peace Health St. Joseph Medical Center spokeswoman Amy Cloud confirmed Monday.

Deke Richards, Motown songwriter, has died . Richards was one of the four members of The Clan, and - after the Clan disbanded - was one of the four members of The Corporation - alongside Berry Gordy, Alphonzo Mizell and Freddie Perren.

Who's the best DJ I've ever seen? It's not even close... that coveted title goes to the mighty DJ Jazzy Jeff (you're trophy's in the mail, sir).

The Block Party Vol. 1 is made up of songs that JJ heard at the block parties he frequented as a young whipper snapper [...]
