{"product_id":"otis-redding-otis-redding-sings-soul","title":"Otis Redding - Otis Blue \/ Otis Redding Sings Soul","description":"\u003ch2\u003eConsidered by many critics to be Redding's first great album. Recorded in April and July of 1965, it was released September 15th of that same year. Otis Blue includes covers of three songs by Sam Cooke, Redding's idol, who died the previous December in 1964. Their styles couldn't have been more different; Cooke smooth and sure, Redding raw and pleading. But Redding's versions of \"Shake\" and \"A Change Is Gonna Come\" show how Cooke's sound and message helped shape Redding's Southern soul sound. Redding's singing reaches a new level of expressiveness with this as well as with covers of B.B. King's \"Rock Me Baby\" and the Motown hit \"My Girl\".\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBy 1965, Otis Redding was already a force to be reckoned with, well on his way to earning his King of Soul® title. Then, he released this collection, which is absolutely foundational to any soul vinyl collection. This album includes Otis' soul-searing lament \"I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now),\" a cover of The Rolling Stone's \"(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction\" that is wholly original, the world's introduction to \"Respect\" before Aretha made it her own, and Otis' perfect versions of \"My Girl,\" \"Wonderful World,\" and \"A Change Is Gonna Come\", standards like \"Rock Me Baby\" and spirituals like \"Down in the Valley.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLimited Edition 180g BLUE vinyl \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eCut from the original analog master tapes packaging replicated to the finest detail pressed with more care than ever\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eA1 Ole Man Trouble\u003cbr\u003eA2 Respect\u003cbr\u003eA3 Change Gonna Come\u003cbr\u003eA4 Down In The Valley\u003cbr\u003eA5 I've Been Loving You Too Long\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB1 Shake\u003cbr\u003eB2 My Girl\u003cbr\u003eB3 Wonderful World\u003cbr\u003eB4 Rock Me Baby\u003cbr\u003eB5 Satisfaction\u003cbr\u003eB6 You Don't Miss Your Water\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNotes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: Rhino\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Audio Co","offers":[{"title":"Limited Edition 180g Vinyl LP [Blue]","offer_id":68072874770515,"sku":null,"price":5990.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1867\/3055\/files\/image_2026-11-07_195605309.png?v=1794061573","url":"https:\/\/theaudio.co\/products\/otis-redding-otis-redding-sings-soul","provider":"The Audio Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
