There are a lot of CDs of great music by The Man, but if you want an overview of the type of stuff he sang other than "Dock of the Bay" - then this CD is for you!

This music was released in 1968 as an album and I later bought the CD for the little-known track "You Made a Man Out of Me", but found that I enjoyed the ten other tracks as well, including the laid back "I've Got Dreams to Remember" and "A Fool for You".

The accompanying booklet says that the selections contained on this album were never released prior to 1968 (with the exception of "The Happy Song"). They were recorded during the spring, summer and fall of 1967 and comprise some of the last recordings made by Otis Redding.

Wow now....Dock of the bay....Take one Irish Ranger, a smoochy dance and the words being sung quietly in my right ear... !! It was a long time ago and that Irish Ranger is about 60 years old now so he has probably forgotten me, the song and the way back to the retirement home. LOL Thanks. J.
