Matthews, Wright & King were a studio assembly masterminded by Columbia Nashville producer Larry Strickland. Strickland and the label rounded up vocalist/guitarist Raymond Matthews (who was already contracted with Columbia to do a solo album), bassist/vocalist Woody Wright, and guitarist/vocalist Tony King. The Power of Love appeared in December 1991. The title cut made the Top 50. Dream Seekers followed in 1993, but soon after the trio dissolved.
