Earlier this year, Rhino Records released an Otis Redding digital set, a ten-album set known as The Complete Studio Albums Collection. It is being followed by the upcoming 2CD remaster and expansion Collector’s Edition of the 1965 classic, Otis Blue: Otis Redding Sings Soul, re-release (expected on September 18). This new 2CD reformat was originally a Record Store Day LP exclusive featuring bonus tracks and new remastering. With the 50th Anniversary of Otis Redding’s career start now here, and an upcoming 50th Anniversary celebration planned, it’s only right to kick-start it with a 12CD offering, Soul Manifesto 1964-1970.
Currently, there is no information surrounding this upcoming 12CD Box, but we do know that it is planned for release on October 30. As the time draws nearer, I’ll be able to let you know just what to expect for this massive set that will undoubtedly contain at least ONE version of the legendary song, “(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay”.
As many of you already know, the world lost Otis Redding in an unfortunate plane crash at the end of 1967 during a scheduled set of small dates and television appearances.
We will revisit this upcoming release. In the meantime, the listing for the 2CD re-release of Otis Blue: Otis Redding Sings Soul can be reviewed below.
