This lp cd etc Means a lot to me .. for 2 reasons
1. is its Otis (he never IMHO Sang a bad song he had so much funk soul grit energy he could do it all
ballad dance covers and make those covers like he was the original ..
I could go on and on
Tho he played his last show in my area Cleveland Ohio and wanted to see him
Tho 2nd reasons i wasn't allowed to go Dec 9th ( upbeat show was like a American bandstand tho better as in more diverse
with artist ) My dad just passed away over Thanksgiving time and also my older Sister was
having her 19 b-day party and My mom wanted to stay for it
She also said Otis will tour here in the spring
Tho that day December the 10 after his very last concert at Leos casino Dec 9th a 21 older club
Tragic Plane crash near Madison Wisconsin Dec 10 1967 RIP BIG O
So its very personal LP For me
I know its was hard for Cropper to mix it and
Atlantic wanted to rush it out etc and
And will never know what BIG O would have done since he had 3-4 LP Worth of songs to fill in that # number
songs
Tho i remember hearing the single Dock of the bay which was in mono ..
Then buying the LP and hearing him sing in stereo ( which i am one who loves stax stereo .. :)
Just blew me away ...
So I could review each song tho .. i just like the way had b- sides and 2 unreleased and
A lot of stories go on who picked what etc ...why Steve picked what he did ...
Its shows BIG O depth and the many styles he has done
Also lil side note after Janis as in Joplin seen him at Monterrey festival 67 She changed her whole
style and singing like he did she loved him
A must own for fans of BIG O and music lovers of soul and rb and funk pop\rock bluesy music
Get the vinyl excellent stereo version and mix
peace and
music always :)
After much r&b chart success over the next five years, Otis Redding died in a plane crash in December of 1967. He was 26. Within a few weeks of that tragic accident, Redding's biggest hit, the title song of this collection of twenty tracks, "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay," reached #1 on American pop charts.
This album is a fine compilation of many of Otis's best recordings. Seven of the twenty are monaural. A faint tape hiss is evident in spots, but it's not intrusive (heavy filtering would've been, IMO). NOTE: The "live" version of "Shake" was the charting single. Included here is a studio track from the #1 compilation album, THE HISTORY OF OTIS REDDING (1967).

Spurred by reading the newly released biography of Wilson Pickett, Tony Fletcher’s In the Midnight Hour (2017), I ordered and listened in sequence to three collections, Pickett’s greatest hits, Etta James’s Muscle Shoals sessions, and this album, Otis Redding’s great, but alas posthumous Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. All three were good –outstanding, actually. Etta’s was my favorite but this one probably had the most direct emotional appeal to me. They all three learned their trade in a good school, the mix of Gospel and downhome music they heard all the way through while they were growing up. Redding sounds the least Gospel of the three, mostly because he sounds mellower, more laidback, which also means more in the groove for late 60s mainstream youth America –which may explain why initially he seems to have had more success as a crossover artist. (There was also his blowout performance at Monterey, which captured on video and seen nationwide. I’ll never forget his performance of “Try a Little Tenderness” at that concert.) The standout song on this album is “Sitting on the Deck of the Bay,” of course. He wrote it, he sang it, and it still works, almost fifty years after. This is a very good album, and like the albums by Etta and Wilson, it reminds us of what great music came out in those years when I, at least, was still relatively young and when people listened to their music more on jukeboxes and bistro sound systems than they did through their individual iPods. It was a communal experience, not isolated, and that somehow added a social dimension to the music that I can’t strip away even when I listen to it now, decades later.
