Details

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Wright began singing in church and later fronted a gospel music group, the Harmony Echoes. It was during this time that he was discovered by Roosevelt Jamison a songwriter and manager. Their first pop recording in 1964 was "That's How Strong My Love Is", an impassioned ballad later covered by Otis Redding and the Rolling Stones. It was issued on Goldwax, the label Wright signed to after leaving his gospel career. It was later determined that Don Robey still had him under contract, due to his gospel group having recorded for Peacock. After his contract was shifted to Don Robey's Back Beat label, further R&B hits followed, with Wright's plaintive delivery excelling on the slow material. Working with producer Willie Mitchell, success continued on songs including "The Ace of Spades" and "A Nickel and a Nail". However, Wright was imprisoned for narcotics offences during the mid-1970s, and, despite signing for Hi Records and releasing a series of quality recordings, his commercial success failed to recover after his release.
