      He lost his father very young as I did but his father's music is timeless. I know of no generation nor culture that doesn't love Otis Redding. I think of The Summer of Love at the fairgrounds in Monterrey in 1967. He was so different than other bands on the venue but he's the one who got them moving. 3:39 😮

    It absolutely breaks my heart that Otis died at 26 years of age. So talented. So smart. He negotiated his own contracts, invested his money extremely wisely and retained the publishing rights on his songwriting, which nobody - not even the Beatles - were smart enough to do in the early to mid 60’s. He would have done so much more had he lived.

      Thats why the small hat tribe sabotaged his plain and why mumble rappers and low talent nibbas reign supreme in the music industry. small hats and their associates do not like artists with talent thats why they get rid of them or tarnish they image the second they dont want to play ball or try to become independent. Laugh and mock me since i have no proof but it makes sense, biggie smalls died for the same reasons, now look what came out about diddy his "friend".

    I remember that day quite well, I was 12 yrs Old and from Atlanta, we claimed Otis Redding as one of our own even though He was from the big M we called it, Macon, Ga,
    That was the saddest Christmas ever, Otis Redding songs played over & over..Merry Christmas Baby..you sure did treat me right, just one on His many classics,
    Then Try A Little Tenderness became an anthem, with tears flowing from our eyes because our hearts was broken mourning His death, and those who was madly in love, then there was Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay which just amplified the tragic plane crash every time we heard it, because His plane was over loaded and missed the runway by several hundred feet and plunged into the Winona River in Minnesota, when they pulled Him out of the river He still had His seat belt on strapped to His seat, a terrible sight that the world saw, an image I can never forget as long as I live,
    YES...one of the most tragic events of my lifetime, an image I'll never forget, and If that wasn't enough, 4 months later Dr. King was assassinated,
    Those 2 events shaped my life in not a good way,
    But they helped me to understand how precious life is and how little time we have on this planet,
    RIP,,,BIG O...and Dr. King!!

      well, on a side note there is a huge library of music through the ages at your fingertips. And if you go looking plenty of artists still have the chops - and many more are able to flourish thanks to the availability of audio engineering. Some songs that are great would never have been made if the singer couldn't convey the vision in their head into reality.

    One camera, no lighting gimmicks, bear bones stage set, the horns don't appear in the shot until the song hits the 3 minute mark and yet... you can see the humanity, the raw emotion: the artist is allowed to sweat and, most of all, they get to play and sing live in a television show!!! god bless the producers who let it happen because if the guy was forced to lip-sync (like so many tv shows, e.g. Dick Clark in American Bandstand, impose(d) on musicians) we wouldn't have this treasure for the ages...

I was at his last performance with a friend from Baltimore. We were students at Denison University and he was the brightest star in our galaxy. He performed in his signature dark gray shark's skin suit, sweating through it on a tiny and packed stage with the Bar-kays, dark lighting, funky beautiful night club. May he rest in peace without people mis-representing him... and bless his son OR lll as well.- I will always love you. I danced with my daughter at her wedding to this beautiful song.. Peter SIckels

    I was really into that sound as a teenager. Most were listening to the Motown sound. I loved Wilson, Otis, Aretha, Sam &Dave.

    I so want the Teskey Bros to cover this and do an extended version. Otis masterfully leaves you wanting so much more.

    I still remember this song from '67. Makes me remember how awful it was when he died so young. Love it Otis!!

    Pour l'anecdote le seul rescapé, son batteur de 17 ans ....qui n'avait pas mis sa ceinture de sécurité.

    I was there. It was a fantastic show, and Otis was one of my all-time favorites. I couldn't believe the news in the Cleveland plain dealer the following morning..

    His last performance and for me one of his very best. But then I've always been partial to this song sung both from the heart and from the gut.

    An incredible talent. Out of all of his songs, Sitting on the Dock of the Bay was always my favorite.

      Oddly he didn't perform Dock of the Bay at his last performance. Managers must have had the song on hold and it was released within days after he died...Peter SIckels

    I grew up down south listening to such great musical tunes of "The Great Otis Redding" all the way from Macon, GA. Still love them to this day at age 65 I will never forget or stop listening to his music.

    I'm always sad when another death by cancer.
    The word makes sick and
    Disgusted.
    My heart goes out to the family,
    They also had to battle through this.
    PEACE AND LOVE

    What breaks my heart is that these celebrities never really got to see the impact that they made and what their music made because they died so young or before their song made it big and that’s devastating to me is that they wanted to do something and like make something of themselves and make people happy, and they never got to see it that’s just devastating to me
