The first I cried and didn't know why. 1967 the day O died. I knew the music would never the same and I would be able to hear a new song be the genius of my generation. A man who sang from the gut and touched every heart, blessed to hear Otis Redding sing a song.

"Mr. Pitiful" was recorded in December 1964 at the Stax studios. The song was written by guitarist Steve Cropper and singer Otis Redding, his first collaboration with Cropper, as a response to a statement made by radio disc jockey Moohah Williams, when he nicknamed Redding as "Mr. Pitiful", because of sounding pitiful when singing ballads. Cropper heard this and had the idea to write a song with that name when taking a shower. Cropper then asked Redding in a car how he felt about this idea, and soon after they recorded the song in about 10 minutes. ----------------------------------------I love when you learn the background of a song and it takes on a whole new meaning
