A report on Try a Little Tenderness, Jimmy Campbell and Reg Connelly and Otis Redding

"Try a Little Tenderness" is a song written by Jimmy Campbell, Reg Connelly, and Harry M. Woods.

A popular version in an entirely new form was recorded by soul artist Otis Redding in 1966.

One of their most successful songs, "Try a Little Tenderness", was written with Harry M. Woods in 1932.

First recorded by Ray Noble's Mayfair Dance Orchestra, it was a hit for the Ted Lewis Orchestra, and was successfully revived by soul singer Otis Redding in 1966.

In addition to "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay", "Respect" and "Try a Little Tenderness" are among his best-known songs.

In late 1966, Redding returned to the Stax studio and recorded several tracks, including "Try a Little Tenderness", written by Jimmy Campbell, Reg Connelly and Harry M. Woods in 1932.
