WILLIAM BELL: IN TRIBUTE. OTIS REDDING REMEMBERED
THIS DAY IN POP MUSIC HISTORY
1967: Otis Redding and four members of his band, the Bar-Kays, are killed when their tour plane crashes into a frozen lake near Madison, WI. Three days earlier, Redding had recorded what was to be his break-though pop hit, “Sittin’ On The Dock Of The Bay.”
