As I mentioned in my last Otis Redding post, I still find it hard to believe that this man died at the age of 26…amazing. The impact he was able to have before his death is historical. This record is just classic soul, as the name of the album states. It’s downtempo with minimal music complexity, and maximum feeling. I’m also not opposed to putting a pretty female on the cover of an album, I can most definitely dig it.
