“Poor Otis, dead and gone
Left us here to sing his song
Pretty little girl with the red dress on
Poor Otis ,dead and gone”
—The Doors
Otis, My Man!
One of the greatest performers of all time. Sad he died so young. If you’re into some more emotionality from the same concert, “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” is a must see.

As for the funky soul, “Shake” from this show is off the charts good.
