It's shaping up to be a soulful summer with the release of Otis Redding's The Complete Stax/Volt Singles Collection on Shout! Factory Records. This triple-disc set will feature every single side released by Redding in life and death.

Born in Georgia, Redding was a singer/songwriter who went from stints on the chitlin circuit to a brief tenure in Little Richard's band The Upsetters before a chance session at Stax Studios in Memphis put him on the soul music map. With songs like "These Arms of Mine," "I've Been Loving You Too Long" and "Respect" (later, of course, a hit for Aretha Franklin), Redding's impassioned vocal delivery and arrangements made him a bona fide R&B star. He'd flirted with crossover success on slow burners like "Try a Little Tenderness" and cut several duets with Carla Thomas, and delivered a phenomenal performance at the Monterey Pop Festival of 1967.

But it was the serene "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay" and the unfortunate circumstances surrounding the track that gave Redding the crossover hit he deserved. "Dock of the Bay" was a No. 1 hit on the Billboard charts in 1968; unfortunately, by that point Redding died in a plane crash late the past year. It was the first posthumous chart-topper.

Redding's body of work lives on today, in film and through covers and samples. There's also a helping of catalogue activity, like this year's Lonely and Blue compilation. And this three-disc set, featuring each of Redding's A- and B-sides in mono (some for the first time on CD), ensures his memory will never die.

The Complete Stax/Volt Singles Collection is available in stores on July 23, but those who order from the label directly will see theirs ship around June 25, and with a bonus 7" of "I've Got Dreams to Remember" b/w "Nobody's Fault But Mine," featuring a replica ATCO promo-only label.

Hit the jump for full specs on this set.
