I found a vinyl copy in Athens in the 90's and I have loved it ever since. You should post some more of this in the future. Excellent record. This has been one of my favorite albums for years.

Otis sang out front w/Johnny's band on some live dates, and he had already released a few singles under his own name when he stepped to the mic at Stax at the conclusion of a long Jenkins session. the one about sonny bono horning his way into the employ of spector while delivering pizza, now that's true! dc good of you to share this; it is woefully under-appreciated music . . . from all i’ve read (the Otis bio and various other sources) the “driver/personal valet” story is largely myth.
