mp3 : Otis Redding - (Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay
It really is quite beautiful and as I said in the heading, I can't think of anyone who doesn't like the song.
There were three other tracks on the single which are all very fine examples of how good a singer he was:-
mp3 : Otis Redding - Sweet Lorene
mp3 : Otis Redding - Hard To Handle
mp3 : Otis Redding - The Glory Of Love
And finally today, a cover of a song that he co-composed and made famous:-
mp3 : Tindersticks - I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now)
See.....it's not all jangly guitars round these parts.

Anyone who doesn't love this song should be locked in a room and made to watch X-Factor until their brains bleed out through their noses.
Sorted.
Admirable shift of emphasis JC .. which may just halt the 'decline'.
I have a complaint; where's the indie boys with guitars or the Scottish pop music? None of this soul nonsense please.
*joke*
I've always loved this song. One of the few songs by other people I ever learnt to play properly, and a regular of mine on the karaoke!!!
Sweet soul music indeed...
And did you know that the song was finished after his tragic demise.
I was once in a fight due to this record. A guy was going on about Michael Bolton's version and how good it was, I had to interject and tell him it was pish and one thing led to another and well lets just say I should never tell a 6 foot four rugby player that his taste in music was pish!
This blog always create some informational and amazing things, which add in my knowledge and experience.But I am a bit confuse. Thanks for sharing.Waiting for next post.
