Video: Otis Redding Try A Little Tenderness

Happy Birthday Otis! 70 years old today! Sittin On the Dock of the Bay is a classic, but this is my favorite. Discovered the song through the move "Commitments," but once I heard the Otis version it was lights out.

Got that same surf guitar sound, so they aren't inventing anything new, but we do seem to get a darker album this time around. I like it.
New album Portamento out Sept. 6

Atlas Sound - Tera Incognito source Photog Music
This is not my favorite music, but many people are drooling over this (and anything Bradford Cox does) so I included it. Nice and mellow, perfect for a Sunday afternoon.
