The album comprises twelve of Redding's most soulful compositions that only enhance the argument the he is one of the best soul singers of all time. It features the hits "These Arms Of Mine," "I've Been Loving You Too Long" and "My Lover's Prayer" along side lesser known gems like "Gone Again" and "Waste Of Time." The real attraction for collectors are the alternate versions of the songs "Open The Door" and a darker, more personal version of "I've Got Dreams To Remember."
The new compilation is package like a vintage Stax/Volt album release with its liner notes on the back of the album and the CD comes housed in a sleeve, just like vinyl records. The cover has a picture of Otis Redding with the outer record wearing around the edges. A classic looking piece of music indeed.
