Born in May Pen, Clarendon Parish, Jamaica, on July 3, 1944, he was best known for his work as a session musician in the prolific Studio One and Treasure Isle studios during the 1960s and 1970s. Wright's mastery of the Hammond organ made him a sought-after musician in the reggae scene. He played with some of the most influential acts of the time, including Tommy McCook and The Supersonics, and he was also a member of The Impact All-Stars. His keyboard skills can be heard on numerous classic recordings from that era. It's possible that this title could be confused with or related to Harry J Allstars' famous track "The Liquidator," which is known for its prominent organ part that could have been played by Wright or another keyboardist of the time.
