This was the first posthumous release after Redding died in 1967, and his seventh studio album. It collected some singles, b-sides, and previously released tracks, including the title track “(Sittin’ On) The Doc of the Bay” which was cowritten by Steve Cropper and Redding. Also has a great version of “Nobody Knows You (When You’re Down And Out.”

The band here includes Booker T. Jones, Isaac Hayes, Steve Cropper, Donald “Duck” Dunn, and Al Jackson Jr. Carla Thomas joins on “Tramp.”

My copy is a 1968 pressing via Electric Fetus in Minneapolis MN – it’s in great shape.
