O.V. Wright - Treasured moments -  Play Back records (Double CD) 

'When O.V. Wright died from a heart attack in 1980, it was a tragic end to one of the greatest artistic runs of any American soul singer. Although the 41 year old had scored thirteen Top 50 R&B hits, his success cannot be measured strictly in commercial terms; rather, Wright is revered as one of the greatest, most expressive and accomplished stylists in the idiom's history, ranking right alongside if not eclipsing such famed colleagues as Otis Redding and Solomon Burke. This 2CD set presents a complete compendium of O.V. Wright's scorching 45rpm singles, 41 tracks originally released 1965-1976 on Don Robey's legendary Back Beat label and ABC Records. This is an essential cornerstone of any Southern Soul collection! '
