Otis Redding

What albums/compilations would you recommend for a novice Otis Redding fan?

Please recommend any essential albums or compilations (digitally remastered preferred) that are available. Also, any suggestions for concert films or DVDs are also welcome.
this one has the best. and you can sample some of the ones you havent heard

Others (Van Morrison, Neil Young) seem to have sprung from out of nowhere with the fully formed soul of a life well-lived. Ray LaMontagne belongs with the latter. On this, his debut, LaMontagne has crafte… |
