Default Otis Redding

A soul legend. His hit "(Sittin' On) the Dock of the Bay" is one of his most well known songs. Along with other classics like "Respect", "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", and "Try a Little Tenderness". Redding wrote many of his songs.

His cover of I Cant Get No Satisfaction is great. I have to say, Try a Little Tenderness and Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay are among my favorite songs of all time. Otis, a damn good reason for a soul forum.

Two other covers stand out as favourites of mine. 'My Girl' written by Smokey Robinson and Sam Cooke's 'Shake'.
No other artist could do justice to songs like these, other than Otis Redding.
