In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise.

Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music!

When Traffics' Stevie Winwood first heard the single after which this album is named, he said “Is it a Dylan song? Eric Burdon? Sounds like Otis.” Stevie’s credentials are excellent, and his answer is very revealing. “Dock of the Bay” does sound very much like something that Dylan could have written. Both he and Otis were headed in the same direction.
As it is, "Dock Of The Bay" was Otis’ last single and the only indication left of where Otis was going to take us. It is possible to thing that the tremendous emotional impact of this song — and that would be the indication of its soul — is in part due to his death, but the song itself, a distillation of all that’s best in soul ballads, stands as one of Otis’ very best recordings. “Dock of the Bay” indicated a real change in Otis’ ballad style; he refined down to two beautiful lines the techniques of tension against melancholy that he used in “Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa” and “Try a Little Tenderness.”
The cuts on this “memorial album” were selected by Jon Landau, who went through all of Otis’ recordings and picked his best performances with the exception of most of the best-known material. People who don’t buy R&B singles should be especially grateful as should those who are not disc jockeys and did not obtain the Stax “Stay in School” album, a release which featured all the Stax-Volt performers in an antidrop out propaganda piece. “Huckle-Buck” from that album is a performance that swings like mad. Where the horns aren’t carrying it, the bass is - just great.
“I’m Coming Home,” a nearly faultless display of Otis’ voice, because of the arrangement, particularly the horns which provide the primary texture, is relatively uninteresting and should probably not have been included in this set. “Ole Man Trouble” is too loose on this recording. While it is a fine song and a moving one with which to close this album, it can be found in a much better version on Otis Blue. But those are only a couple of the decided misteps, because the positives of the the albums rewards throughout both sides - abound!
