Otis Redding-Stand By Me

Perhaps better known when performed by Ben E. King, ‘Stand By Me’ appears on Otis Redding’s 1964 release Pain In My Heart. Otis’s version moves a little bit more quickly and has slightly different instrumentation, but all of the soul remains across both versions. Personally, I like to have my cake and eat it too, and that’s why I listen to both.
