Aretha Franklin's version of "Respect" in '67 was one for the ages - here's the slightly different arrangement by its writer, the great Otis Redding. His version was a Top 5 R&B record. Otis was such an influence on everybody in that genre, and left us way too soon.

The arrangement of their "garage-band" version is closer to Otis' original than the more famous Aretha Franklin one.
