It still pains the heart that the original LP recording of Dock of the Bay was released posthumously, its singer dead at age 26. Roger Armstrong of Ace Records and Otis biographer Jonathan Gould gathered the cuts which might have comprised the album the way it was intended. With full support of Redding’s family, this classic release includes the immortal (Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay, Think About It, Love Man, Champagne and Wine, Hard to Handle, The Happy Song (Dum-Dum-De-De-Dum-Dum), Gone Again, Amen and more.
