The Otis Redding footage was amazing. I'm a big fan, but had never seen that footage of him doing "Respect." Not sure if those were the BarKays, but the song itself was written by Redding and covered by Aretha Franklin(though I like how Redding borrows the bridge from from Aretha's version). A great documentary. . . if you have a chance, read "Sweet Soul Music" by Peter Guarlnick, which details a lot of the same stuff, though more expansively.
