Of course, there are lots of great musicians in many different genres, but since you cannot include all of them, I only listed the first five favorite rhythm & blues players that I came up with:

Otis Redding, The Dock Of The Bay, 1968 on Volt.
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.

Sipping a little bourbon while dinner digests and listening to "In The Christmas Spirit" by Booker T & the MG's...one of my all time favorite albums this time of year. I'll be listening to that one all through Epiphany... 😉 #Christmas #Weihnachten #Music #Musik #soul #RandB #Stax #BookerTJones #SteveCropper #DonaldDuckDunn #AlJacksonJr
