January 11, 2025 Records of the Day

Little Richard’s back-up band was the Upsetters. Among the members during those early years of Rock and Roll was a man who would epitomize the Soul sound of the 60’s. That man was Otis Redding. Best known for his #1 hit, “(Sittin’on) The Dock of the Bay,” he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. His “Dock of the Bay” single can fetch $40.00. In 1965, Volt Records released the Otis Redding album, “Soul Ballads.” A copy is worth up to $100.00 today.
