Here Is Something I Found
Over On
This Essential six-CD set
captures Otis
and his blazing
ten-piece band
at a vital time
in soul music,
where a young showman
was trying to cross over
to the
white Rock'n 'Rollers
on the Sunset Strip.
“We’re hoping that this be one
of the greatest albums
that ever come out.
” Otis Redding says these words
just before launching into
“Respect”
on April 8, 1966,
wrapping up the first
of seven sets he’d play
over the course
of three days
at Los Angeles’
Whisky A Go Go.
A few songs earlier,
he first informed the crowd
that they were recording
the concert with plans of
releasing it as an album,
playing the newly-written
“Good to Me”
for the second time
in nine songs simply
because it was the single
and they needed
to get it right.
For his ’66 stint at
the Whisky A Go Go,
he was backed by
his road band,
the Otis Redding Revue,
a ten-piece group
similar to the bands
who supported him
whenever he
toured the south.
This is the residency that is
captured in its entirety
on Stax’s six-disc box
Live at the Whisky A Go Go:
the Complete Recordings.
