It's easy to overlook how innovative the brother-in-law duo of Johnnie Wright and Jack Anglin were in the early '50s. With a talent for musical synthesis, they combined high mountain harmonies with subtle Latin rhythms, and later applied themselves to R&B material, turning hits by the Four Knights, the Spaniels, and the Moonglows into solid country classics without sacrificing any of the soul inherent in the original versions. Backed by the Tennessee Mountain Boys (Chet Atkins was a member for a time), they were also one hell of a live act, capable of playing straight country waltzes or shifting into bluegrass gear at the blink of an eye. This well-selected single-disc retrospective of their years with RCA has all the absolute essentials, including the 1951 gem "Poison Love" and their classic covers of "Oh Baby Mine (I Get So Lonesome)," "Goodnight Sweetheart Goodnight," and "Sincerely," making this a fine introduction to the duo's subtle and innovative body of work. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
