Otis Blue : ウィキペディア英語版
Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul

''Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul'', or simply ''Otis Blue'', released September 15, 1965 on Stax Records, is the third studio album by soul singer Otis Redding. The album mainly consists of cover songs by popular R&B and soul artists, and, bar one track, was recorded in a 24-hour period over July 9/10 1965 at the Stax Recording Studios in Memphis, Tennessee. ''Otis Blue'' was critically acclaimed upon release and became one of Redding's most successful albums; it reached number 6 on the UK Albums Chart, and was his first to reach the top spot of the ''Billboard'' R&B chart. Furthermore, it produced three popular singles, all charting at least in the top 50 on both the ''Billboard'' R&B and the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart. It is considered by many critics to be Redding's first fully realized album.
Three of the eleven songs were written by Redding: "Ole Man Trouble", "Respect", and "I've Been Loving You Too Long". Three songs were written by Sam Cooke, a soul musician who had died a few months earlier. As was the case in the previous albums, Redding was backed by house band Booker T. & the M.G.'s, a horn section of members of The Mar-Keys and The Memphis Horns, and pianist Isaac Hayes.
''Otis Blue'' is included in a number of "best album" lists, including Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, ''Time'' magazine's list of the All-Time 100 Greatest Albums, and Robert Dimery's "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". Rhino Records released a two-disc Collectors Edition of ''Otis Blue'' in 2008.
== Recording ==

Stax Records president Jim Stewart had released Otis Redding's "These Arms of Mine" after hearing him sing it at an audition in 1962; and when it charted, he signed Redding to Stax. Following the moderately successful ''Pain in My Heart'' and ''The Great Otis Redding Sings Soul Ballads'', both of which performed well in the newly established ''Billboard'' R&B LP chart but not in the ''Billboard'' 200, preparations for the third studio album followed soon after. The album would be Redding's third studio album and second on Stax's sister label Volt.
Redding recorded the album with the Stax's house band Booker T. & the M.G.'s (guitarist Steve Cropper, bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn, drummer Al Jackson Jr.), Isaac Hayes on piano, and a horn section consisting of members of the Mar-Keys and the Memphis Horns. The album was recorded in a 24 hour session between 10am July 9 (a Saturday) and July 10 2pm, with a break from 8pm Saturday to 2am on Sunday to allow the house band to play local gigs. As was the case with the previous album, engineer Tom Dowd came to the studios to assist the recording, dubbing Redding as a "genius" next to Bobby Darin and Ray Charles. The album opens with "Ole Man Trouble", which was finished on the sessions earlier than other songs, and was later released as a B-side of "Respect".
According to the drummer, Jackson, Redding wrote "Respect", after a conversation they had during a break in the recording session, in which he told Redding: "You're on the road all the time. All you can look for is a little respect when you come home." An alternative story is told by Redding's friend and road manager, Earl "Speedo" Sims, who states that the song "came from a group I was singing with", and that even though Redding rewrote it, "a lot of the lyric was still there"; Sims adds: "He told me I would get a credit, but I never did". Sims also states that he sang the backing chorus of "Hey hey hey". The song used for the fifth track, "I've Been Loving You Too Long", had been previously recorded in mono with Booker T. Jones on piano and released as a single in April 1965, becoming a number-two hit on ''Billboard''s R&B chart; it was rerecorded in stereo for the album.
