In first getting to know my sister from another mister, Angelica, we talked about music a lot. In doing so, I learned that one of her favorite artists of all-time was Otis Redding. Though I knew Otis Redding and had heard the song “(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay” many, many times, I was ignorant to the rest of his catalog at that time. Through the years that followed, however, I was fortunate enough to work on almost every single studio album that he released and really familiarize myself with his work.
