Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay

Recorded days before his death in a plane crash in 1968, the haunting ‘Dock Of The Bay’ was Otis Redding's biggest hit. The whistling in the track is actually in place of a last verse that Otis planned to record, but never got the chance to do. A definite timeless track.

This is one of the most evocative, timeless songs ever written - so poignant because of his untimely death!
