Recordings- Deep Soul hero and Japanese Soul Superstar- Previously unreleased recordings- New and exclusive essay by black music journalist Tony Cummings. One of the most revered Deep Soul singers of the Sixties alongside the likes of James Carr, Percy Sledge and O. V. Wright... OTIS CLAY was born in Waxhaw, Mississippi in 1942. He grew up singing in the church graduating into one of the greatest gospel quartets of all time - the Sensational Nightingales. Clay made the jump to secular music in 1962 and signed to the Chicago based 'One-derful!' tag eventually landing a national R&B hit with InchThat's How It IsInch, a fine testament to his towering talent. In truth, Otis Clay never achieved the level of success that he truly deserved. In later life he found huge success in Japan and also recorded the original version of InchThe Only Way Is UpInch, a European chart-topper for Yazz and The Plastic Machine.
