Otis Redding "Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul"
LP (NEW) - Vinyl, ATCO, US, 2001, 081227971601, 180g Blue Vinyl, Reissue
Released on 15 September 1965 through Stax Records' subsidiary Volt, Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul is a classic that stands as the definitive blueprint for 1960s Southern soul. Widely regarded by music critics as Redding's first fully realised long-form achievement, this 11-track powerhouse captures an unparalleled intersection of grit, emotional vulnerability, and raw momentum. Remarkably recorded almost entirely within a frenetic 24-hour window, the album functions as a cohesive artistic statement that helped crossover rhythm and blues to mainstream global audiences.
