More than a quarter of this album is given over to Redding’s version of songs by Sam Cooke, his idol, who had died the previous December. Otis Redding Sings Soul is considered by many critics to be Redding’s first great album. Recorded in April and July of 1965, it was released September 15th of that same year. The styles of Cooke and Redding couldn’t have been more different; Cooke smooth and sure, Redding raw and pleading. But Redding’s versions of “Shake” and “A Change Is Gonna Come” show how Cooke’s sound and message helped shape Redding’s Southern soul sound. Redding’s singing reaches a new level of expressiveness with this as well as with covers of B.B. King’s “Rock Me Baby” and the Motown hit “My Girl.” This great album receives the full Analogue Productions reissue treatment here, starting with Kevin Gray’s remaster from the original analogue tapes.
