How is it possible that this excellent Otis Redding documentary has been out since 2007, and until now has had NO user reviews? For anyone interested in soul music or the history of Stax Records, this is absolutely essential viewing. Interviews with widow Zelda Redding, Stax co-founder Jim Stewart, and musicians Steve Cropper and Wayne Jackson are blended with performance footage and contemporaneous footage of Otis chatting with Dick Clark. It would have been nice if sources of the performance footage had been more clearly identified, but that's a minor quibble: unlike many similar films, Dreams to Remember gives us full songs rather than brief excerpts.
