Holland-Dozier-Holland: Hot Wax Singles and Holland-Dozier-Holland: Invictus Records
Edsel/Demon Records
Great track listing for these singles collections but no indication if appropriate mono mixes were used or not. I reached out to Edsel to ask them and they were kind enough to send me a list of the tracks in mono.
Invictus
The 8th Day – She’s Not Just Another Woman
COTB – Let me Down Easy
Ty Hunter – Hey There Lonely Girl
Ruth Copeland – Gimme Shelter
Barrino Brothers – I Shall Not Be Moved
Hot Wax
Silent Majority – Frightened Girl
McKinley Jackson – Love Machine pt.1
Flying Ember – If It’s Good For You
Silent Majority – Somethings New About You
Politicians – Free Your Mind
100% Proof Aged In Soul – Everything Good Is Bad
Laura Lee – Crumbs On The Table
Lee Charles – Somebody’s Gonna Hurt You.
Unfortunately, very underwhelming for mono collectors.

It would be great if they actually include the US single versions (whether in mono or stereo).
What Demon might do is simply repackage what they released on their Harmless label in 2014.
That box set had 14 CDs and included almost every single track on these two new compilations.
That box set did not have the correct US single versions for several top 40 hits including:
1. You've Got To Crawl (Before You Walk) - The 8th Day
2. The Day I Found Myself - Honey Cone
3. I'm Not My Brothers Keeper - Flaming Ember
4. Women's Love Rights - Laura Lee
5. Bring The Boys Home - Freda Payne
Will have to wait and see, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.
