Otis Redding - Otis Blue (Top 500 Countdown Update)

This is the best of his studio albums I have heard, but it doesn't compare to Live In Europe. In the studio Redding just sounds somewhat contained compared to how he sounds on stage with a band that is just as tight as it is on this album. Personally I would get Sam Cooke's studio stuff over Redding's, but the Live In Europe album is fantastic.
