Product Description

CD Description

The titanic soul machine that was Otis Redding is captured in peak form on this live album, documenting two nights of his performances on the Stax soul revue's 1967 European tour.Some of these tracks were previously issued on the LIVE IN EUROPE album released that same year, but it took until 2008for a full sonic accounting of those spectacular sets. Backed by the stellar Stax house band of the time, which comprised Booker T. & the M.G.'s plus members of the Mar-Keys, Redding wails, moans, croons, pleads, and testifies his way through some of the best-loved items in his repertoire, from thelove-junkie cry of "I've Been Loving You Too Long" to the propulsive Beatles reinvention "Day Tripper". This is the King of Soul at the top of his game, giving his all for fans who feed that energy right back towards the stage.

5.0 out of 5 stars 4½ stars. Fans will not want to miss this one, 18 April 2009
By Docendo Discimus (Vita scholae) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This 2008 release brings together two 1967 performances from London and Paris respectively. The March 17th set from London was originally issued by Atlantic in 1967, but as far as I can tell the Paris set from March 21st has never been available before - oddly enough, since it is the best of the two.

Otis Redding is backed by Booker T. and the MGs here, and they have brough the Mar-Keys horn section along, too. And Redding himself in top form, delivering each performance with incredible urgency and fervour.
The London set is only seven songs to the eleven recorded in Paris, France, and a couple of those performances are either extraordinarily wild and urgent, or simply rushed and sloppy, depending on your point of view. I was never very fond of "Satisfaction" played as a soul tune, no matter by whom, and these two performances haven't made me come around on that one, but the Beatles' "Day Tripper" lends itself well to this treatment, and the London version is particularly juicy.

And, well, everything else is pretty much indisputable. Backed by the powerhouse that was Booker T. Jones and the Memphis Group, and a churning, pulsating horn section, Otis Ray Redding, jr. was the master, delivering up-tempo soul stompers and emotional ballads with equal vigour. Here he tears through a series of incredibly energetic performances, from a fiery rendition of Sam Cooke's "Shake", to his own "I Can't Turn You Lose", and even the slow tunes, like "Try A Little Tenderness" and "I've Been Loving You Too Long", burn the house down.

If you think the London set is perhaps a bit up and down, sit tight for the Paris set, which is one of the finest, most exhilarating performances ever captured on tape, the equal of anything the great Otis Redding ever did.
Not to be missed!
