Weekend Wildcard - Hard to Handle by Otis Redding

This Weekend's Wildcard is brought to you by Otis Redding. I hate to admit it but up until a couple of years ago I had no idea that this was not a Black Crowes original song. It blew my mind. He also recorded other great songs such as Sitting on the Dock of the Bay and Respect (Yes, that Respect).

Sadly, Otis died in a plane crash at the age of 26. This song was not released until after his death. He recorded Sitting on the Dock of the Bay just days before the crash. There is no telling what he would have gone on to accomplish. RIP Otis.
