Otis Redding & The Pinetoppers - Fat Girl

[DennisWheeler100]

This is the 1st recording of Otis released on Confederate Records which was produced by Bobby Smith out of Macon GA! hard to find the original 45. Most have been bought up and destroyed because the label had the confederate flag on the 45 singles as the logo. Most of the artists on Confederate Records were Black Artists. They later changed the name of the label to Boblo Records and then to Macon Records. Eventually the record label was absorbed into the Federal Record Label and King Records.

[mareckbamf]

If he isn't the greatest, I don't know who is.

[Ruffnekk73]

@mareckbamf I agree!

[godhelpme2009]

the whole band is rockin'out too ! Of course great players would want to play together & esp. for a recording. Good performers can bring out the best in each other also & it is beyond doubt that Otis Redding was one of the best performers to ever be recorded. Rest In Peace Otis Redding, it is impossible for me to measure how much joy I've gotten from his greatness & how he shared it.
