Product Details

Otis Redding recorded prolifically in his four years at Stax, and the depth of his catalog means a second volume of essential cuts is no stretch. What this collection captures is the full sweep of his range as an interpreter, from the pleading vulnerability of ballads to the raw, coiled energy that made his 1967 Monterey Pop performance one of the most electric sets of that entire era.


Rhino's first Otis Redding volume was perfect within the confines of a 16-song single disc, and a difficult act to follow. The Very Best of Otis Redding, Vol. 2 is a fine companion volume and fills in some different kinds of gaps. The lion's share of the disc is devoted to 13 more singles, several of which ("I Love You More Than Words Can Say," "Security," "That's What My Heart Needs," "Chained and Bound," "Glory of Love") are, if not definitive, then still all-but-essential.
