This collection of the best songs of soul legend Otis Redding features 40 tracks, including the unforgettable classics "Respect," "My Girl," "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay," and others.
This is a wonderful two-disc overview of Otis Redding's brief career, and it hits most of the high points, including such classics as "Respect," "Try a Little Tenderness," "Pain in My Heart," and "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay." Also included are Redding's near-definitive version of Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come" and the gorgeous (and heartbreaking) "I've Got Dreams to Remember," a Redding original. ~ Steve Leggett
