Release Notes:

Having died at age 26, Otis Redding gave only a glimpse--albeit a
well-documented one--of what he was capable of doing. These four
CDs capture Redding's best moments and give a depth that is
essential to Redding and Stax-era R&B fans. Redding shaped Stax's
signature soul sound, in part by further livening up already
high-powered horn charts and heavy rhythms, and in part by simply
singing his heart out to a ringing degree. His early, heavily
showy stuff is featured here in the form of "Shout Bamalama," but
very quickly this set begins to boast just how categorically
awe-inspiring Redding's vocal powers were. He made the heart hurt
on scorching love-lost tunes ("That's What My Heart Needs") and
then could jar the floor with bursting tempi, complex horn charts
and unflagging passion on a tune like "Mr. Pitiful." By the time
he was churning out tracks with the estimable instrumental outfit
Booker T. & the MG's, Redding's dramatic delivery and awesome
power were evenly keeled, ensuring at least an unforgettable
performance--many of which are on these four CDs. The first three
collect catalog material, from the early tunes (a great vantage on
Redding's forming talent) to "Tramp," his erstwhile hit with Carla
Thomas, to the jump-out-of-your-seat energy of Sam Cooke's "Chain
Gang." The last CD collects live performances, each of which is
distinctly unforgettable. Then there's the sure sign of Redding's
ascendance, "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay," recorded within
days of this Macon, Georgia, native's tragic early death. For
those looking for something more compact than this set, try the
anthology Dreams to Remember. Be prepared, however, to feel teased
by just two CDs when you could have four. --Andrew Bartlett
