I've just got my hands on this compilation of Goldwax singles, and it's really rather wonderful. Covering the early years of the label (and offshoots such as the Bingo and Bandstand labels) it includes some R&B, Blues and even country-tinged offerings, but as you'd expect it's the soul tracks that stand out the best. It includes two of the handful of tracks that O.V.Wright recorded for them, and James Carr's early work.
I've picked the second Goldwax single from the Ovations, It's wonderful to be in love. The first Goldwax single to make it's mark commercially, it reached the Billboard R&B top 30 in 1965.
