...it's been a long time.....and i never left you! that's right i'm back at it again y'all....this time i come at'chu with an effort from the man who left us too early....Mr. Otis Redding....this album is nothing short of amazing....it was his third effort and is an album full of covers and some new material.....believe it or not some people aren't even aware that Mr. Redding wrote and recorded RESPECT before Jerry Wexler thought Ms. Franklin should have a go at it (as we all know a very impressive go at that) but in addition to that gem Mr. Redding also felt obligated to pay homage to another legend...Mr. Sam Cooke who was fatally gunned down in Los Angeles two years earlier with an incredible rendition of 'A Change Is Gonna Come'....backed by Booker T. MG's this is a must have album for all soul fanatics.......Mr. Redding shows all sides of emotion on this one....for a excellent review check this one out on
