Perfect Mix
It makes a wonderful addition to any oldies or blues collection. This CD was a perfect compilation of Otis Redding's hits.


Prompt service
These items were for my dad and they arrived much sooner than expected, he has been enjoying them daily.


One of the very best soul/RnB singers of all time
What an extreme talent, and back from the glory days of RandB/Soul. Otis Redding. This CD is a great compilation of the Legendary Singer. To this day, I have never heard an musical singer with so much "Feel" in his music. "My lovers Prayer" almost makes me cry with all the emotion behind it. This is coming from someone who also enjoys music such as Death Metal, Hardcore Techno, and other extreme forms. I hope this man is never forgotten, and parents will play their Otis records for their children, because lets face it, RnB is a joke today. There was still some talent in the industry even in the mid 90's, but the 2000's have wilted to only a handful, and I mean handful of singers with talent. Such music garbage RnB and Soul has become, its almost laughable. Sorry that I went on a rant, but when you listen to music like Otis, or old Motown, you really wonder what it would be like if the music industry was more interested in selling musical talent, and not some wanna be Thug that grew up on Beverly Hills that does nothing but spit into a harmonic vocalizer. . . If you never have heard this legendary artist, please get this album. You will be hooked on classic RnB and Soul. . enjoy

Perfect
Otis Redding has about 4 songs that are catch all songs, and they have to be included on any album but after that this artist has made so much music that it is impossible to create a greatest hits album without disappointing someone. This is the type of album that is impossible to get right. I am sure this album will have the affect of generating as much praise as genuine outrage. For my part I think this is a great album, while there are songs I would replace on this album with others, I think the powers that be have got this record pretty much right. In the end if you think you can buy only one album of Otis Redding and get all the music you need then I feel sorry for you.

This is a great record. It is not the definitive Redding collection, but with that said you can put this in your cd player and forget about it. Every song here is great. You can listen to this album over and over again. Otis is the epitome of soul. This is a great album that is not definitive but comes as dam close as any album I have come across. I love this man.

A real classic
However, the whole CD is great!. I purchased this CD for two particular songs I love.
