OTIS REDDING'S THIRD ALBUM, PRESENTS HIS TALENT UNFETTERED, HIS DIRECTION CLEAR, AND HIS CONFIDENCE EMBOLDENED, WITH FULLY HALF THE SONGS REPRESENTING A REACH THAT EXTENDED HIS MUSICAL GRASP. MORE THAN A QUARTER OF THIS ALBUM IS GIVEN OVER TO REDDING'S VERSIONS OF SONGS BY SAM COOKE, HIS IDOL, WHO HAD DIED THE PREVIOUS DECEMBER. TWO OF THEM, "A CHANGE IS GONNA COME" AND "SHAKE," ARE EVERY BIT AS ESSENTIAL AS ANY SOUL RECORDINGS EVER MADE. ALSO FEATURED ARE REDDING'S SPELLBINDING RENDITIONS OF "I CAN'T GET NO SATISFACTION," (MICK JAGGER & KEITH RICHARDS ORIGINALLY WROTE THIS AS A TRIBUTE TO REDDING) "MY GIRL," AND "YOU DON'T MISS YOUR WATER." "RESPECT" AND "I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU TO LONG," TWO ORIGINALS THAT WERE TO LOOM LARGE IN HIS CAREER, ARE HER AS WELL; THE FORMER BECAME VASTLY POPULAR IN THE HANDS OF ARETHA FRANKLIN AND THE LATTER WAS AN INSTANT SOUL CLASSIC. AMONG THE SELDOM-CITED JEWELS HERE IS A RENDITION OF B.B. KING'S "ROCK ME BABY" THAT HAS THE SINGER SHARING THE SPOTLIGHT WITH STEVE CROPPER, HIS PLAYING ALTERNATELY ELEGANT AND FIERY, WITH WAYNE JACKSON AND GENE "BOWLEGS" MILLER'S TRUMPETS AND ANDREW LOVE'S AND FLOYD NEWMAN'S SAXES PROVINDING THE BACKING. REDDING'S POWERFUL, REMARKABLE SINGING THROUGHOUT MAKES OTIS BLUE GRITTY, RICH, AND ACHINGLY ALIVE, AND AN ESSENTIAL LISTING EXPERIENCE.
