R. Dean Taylor is a singer, most famous as an recording artist, songwriter, and record producer for Motown Records during the 1960s and 1970s. According to Jason Ankeny, Taylor "remains one of the most underrated acts ever to record under the Motown aegis". After first proving his mettle as a chart-topping staff songwriter, his own single "Indiana Wants Me" was a Top Five smash in 1970, becoming one of the label's first major crossover hits performed by a white artist.

- R. Dean Taylor ist ein kanadischer Sänger, Songschreiber und Produzent, der als einer der wenigen weißen Künstler in den 1960er und 70er Jahren für Motown Records gearbeitet hat.

Als Mit-Produzent war er für den Diana Ross & the Supremes Hit "Love Child" verantwortlich, den er auch mitgeschrieben hatte. 1967 schrieb er den Titel "Gotta see Jane", mit dem er als Sänger 1968 seinen Durchbruch hatte, allerdings zunächst nur in England. Noch erfolgreicher war er 1970, inzwischen beim Motown Label Rare Earth, mit "Indiana Wants Me", einem Nummer-2-Hit in England und einer Nummer 5 in den USA. Ebenfalls auf dem zweiten Platz in England landete 1974 "There's a Ghost in My House". Diesen Song hatte er bereits 1967 aufgenommen und damals ohne Erfolg veröffentlicht. Ebenfalls 1974 erreichte er noch einmal die Charts mit "Window Shopping" (Platz 41 in England).
