A soul-stirring voice, hip-shaking stage persona, a larger than life character, who began her career as an up and coming R&B singer in 1980's New Orleans. Working by day, gigging by night, singing gospel in Church on Sundays. This is her second album, from 1993, originally released on the independent Skyranch label, and is a fine mixture of R&B, Gospel, Soul, Blues - all the ingredients stirred into Classic Soul. This album has been hidden away for too long and it is with great pleasure that SHOUT Records unearths this excellent set of soulful recordings, and reinstates the talented Marva Wright to the forefront of international classic soul buyers minds. Unavailable for over ten years. First proper release outside the US. Stirring New Orleans inflected Soul. Includes legendary New Orleans musicians, writers, arrangers. Re-mastered, re-packaged, reinstated.
