Singer Johnny Rawls comes back to the front line with a bright definitive album, where he pays homage and shows his veneration for the great OV Wright This is a record full of the best most impressive soul and rhythm and blues I have heard for a long time The album was recorded and produced at Sonic Ranch studios, directed and supervised by Johnny Rawls himself, who did an excellent work The song mixtures were done at Bessie Blue studios in Stantoville, Tennessee by Jim Gaines, who did a great job too Finally, the whole recording was mastered by Brad Blackwood at Euphonic Masters studios in Memphis About OV Wright, Rawls used to say Wright was blessed by God, so he was a real gift to the human beings The tribute Rawls pays to OV Wright is really amazing He is a force of nature performing the best and most genuine soul He is backed by the whole musicians of a band called The Rays, who do a faultless performing, especially in horn arrangements, the best ones I have recently heard Also mention the special collaboration of Otis Clay in one song and the backing vocals of The Iveys group
