Otis Redding's historic debut album Pain in My Heart marked the arrival of one of soul music's most powerful voices in 1964. Originally released on Volt Records, a subsidiary of the legendary Stax Records based in Memphis, this groundbreaking collection showcases Redding's raw emotional intensity and his ability to transform both original compositions and covers into deeply moving soul classics.
This essential album features Redding's first self-penned hit "These Arms of Mine" alongside his beloved interpretations of "Stand By Me" and the title track "Pain in My Heart." As part of Rhino's premium Reserve line, this reissue has been expertly cut from the original analog mono master by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab and pressed on 180-gram premium vinyl at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, delivering the authentic warmth and power of Redding's legendary performance in stunning audio quality.
