Otis was asked what his reaction was when songs he did were covered by other artists.
He said, “I think it was some form of flattery.”
Bob Seger sang Otis Clay’s biggest hit and Bob’s version was the most successful version of the song. It was the song titled, “Tryin’ to Live My Life Without You”. The song was popularized by Otis Clay. It is said that he never hit as big as Ottis Redding, Wilson Pickett, or even Al Green.
Clay was an R&B and soul singer, who started in gospel music. In 2013, Clay was inducted to the Blues Hall of Fame.
Clay’s song, I Die a Little Each Day” is the song I like. It is a song that was released in 1972. It was written by Don Bryant and on the HI Records label. A legendary Memphis rockabilly and soul label founded by Ray Harris in 1957.
Otis may not have been as big as some of the other artists like Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, and Al Green, but he was great. His songs were awesome, and he was a great singer who lived to get 73. Otis Clay passed away in 2016. He was born in Waxhaw, Mississippi.
