b. Otis Ray Redding, Jr. in Dawson, GA Sept. 1941 He wrote and recorded "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay", which went on to become a number-one record on both the pop and R&B charts after his death in a plane crash on Dec. 7 1967. I remember that day that I heard about the plane crash. I couldn't believe it. I was in college @ EMU-Ypsilanti, and our whole dorm seemed to be crying. His was a voice to love forever. This was/is the King of Soul. Thank you for uploading.
Timeless Classic! do u think anyone will be listening to Justin Beiber in over 40 years time? They Dont make songs with words, that have meaning and soul anymore!
sweet OTIS man what a voice, so many memories so much fun back then, not all the B.S. of today . i wish i could roll back time to 1959 when the times were good and the MUSIC was the best and the girls were clean,those were the good old days.R.I.P. OTIS
@marleeziee yeah i heard that homless cat .Dug his lonely teardrops cover.hes true old schooler and know his stuff bless his heart but still i gotta roll with Big O.
real true songs got low ratings real true bullshit songs got high ratings kinda similar to how ppl dont believe in some things and are more interested in the negative side of life
Can you imagine how he could have impacted music even more if his life had not ended so soon??? I love this man! and I wasnt even born yet when he died...
I was watching Wonder Years and heard this song. I'd forgotten all about it, truly a classic song. Something music has always needed to be, but rarely reached.
@Sophiaburrell if you were around in 1965 itwould mean a lot, but if not, listen closely to the words. it is timeless and applies to any current time frame
Your love is not a habit my love, just grows stronger. Loving you, we have been together too long now! And my love is different than it was long ago. Te quiero mucho mi Gallito...
@tickledpink2U I am absolutely in love with this girl and the only answer I have been getting is an " I don't know." It is just killing me and I can't stop listening to this song and thinking of her.
