    It is albums like this that inclined me to write about ‘alternative’ albums.

    I knew that there must have been limitless rare gems that I never heard, but I must admit that finding them was as rare as a hen’s tooth. “Memphis Unlimited” is remarkable from any angle, and I’d be proud if I happen to be the source that first exposed someone to the beautiful genius of O.V. Wright’s best album.

    I’ve Been Searching

    Nothing Comes to a Sleeper

    The Only Thing that Saved Me

    He’s My Son Just the Same

    You Must Believe in Yourself
