OTIS REDDING MY FRIEND - March 1, 2007

OTIS REDDING MY FRIEND - March 1, 2007
About Otis Redding
"Shout Bamalama" (1961)
Otis Redding
September 9, 1941 - December 10, 1967

Generally regarded as the single most influential male soul artist of the '60s, Otis Redding was one of the first artists to broaden his appeal to white audiences with a raw, spontaneous style that bore a stark contrast to the smooth, sophisticated music of Motown.

He was born in Dawson, Georgia in 1941. Growing up in Georgia in the 50’s, he listened to songs by Sam Cooke and Little Richard and decided that he would like to be a singer himself. He joined a group called Johnny Jenkins and the Pine toppers in Macon, which was Little Richard's hometown. He recorded with that group on the Confederate label beginning in 1960. One of Otis' first recordings, Shout Bamalama, is done in the style made famous by Little Richard in the 50's.

It is ironic that Otis being black got his start on a label whose image was the Confederate Flag.

Shout Bamalama was later recorded and released by Dennis Wheeler, a white artist singing black R&B, wasn't accepted in the black music culture. Even though the record was moving up the charts, United Artist Records believed if a black artist released Shout Bamalama, it would be a bigger record.

Dennis' lead vocal was replaced on the same music tracks by Mickey Murray, a black artist, which went on to sell over a million 45's and was Mickey's start and went on to record several other songs' of Otis'.
Otis' version was re-released again after Otis became well known.

A turning point in Otis Redding's career came when he drove Johnny Jenkins to Memphis for a recording session. The session was held at a new studio known as Stax and although it was Jenkins who had initially attracted the attention of the record producers, Otis was able to do some recording of his own at the end of the session. He managed to get a song that he had written titled These Arms Of Mine, which was also originally recorded by two other artist, DENNIS WHEELER and ALSO by BUDDY LEACH & THE PLAYBOYS who were also CONFEDERATE RECORDS' artist, released with him as the lead vocalist (Otis Redding & THE PINE TOPPERS) and it made the top twenty on the R&B charts in 1963.

Aretha Franklin recorded Otis' Respect on the Atlantic label and it went to number one on the pop charts in the Spring of 1967. That year Otis Redding made an appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival. His performance in front of a predominately white audience was superb. It resulted in an album Otis Redding/Jimi Hendrix Experience and the film of that concert is still available. Otis Redding was hot

Redding went to Sausalito to relax and, inspired by his experience at the Monterey Pop Festival, wrote [with Steve Cropper] what proved to be his most successful song [Sittin' On] The Dock Of The Bay. He recorded the song on December 7, 1967. He left for a tour with his back-up group, the Bar-Kays, who had earlier come up with their own hit song, Soul Finger. On December 10 while flying to a scheduled performance, his airplane crashed into Lake Monona in Madison, Wisconsin. Some aboard survived the crash, but Otis Redding and four members of the Bar-Kays were killed.

Otis Redding was inducted into the Rock-and-Roll Hall Of Fame in 1989.
