OTIS REDDING Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul (2023 UK/EU limited edition 11-track mono edition LP, part of the celebratory Atlantic 75 Series. Originally released in 1965, Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul is the landmark third album from Otis Redding, widely regarded as one of the most essential soul records ever made. This special anniversary mono reissue is pressed on Crystal Clear Vinyl, and restores the raw power and intimacy of the original mono mix. The album finds Redding in peak form, delivering defining performances of songs that would become synonymous with his legacy. From the aching vulnerability of I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now) to the explosive energy of Shake, and his electrifying take on [I Can't Get No] Satisfaction - Otis made every track his own. Otis Blue also introduced the world to Respect, later immortalised by Aretha Franklin, and showcases his soul-deep interpretations of classics like My Girl, A Change Is Gonna Come, and Wonderful World.
