Johnny Jenkins, who helped Redding win a talent contest at the Hillview Springs Social Club 15 times in row and also at the [whatever it is] "The Teenage Party", left the band to become a featured artist with [whoever they are] the Pinetoppers.
Done. The Pinetoppers were a plain band, so I did not filled the "whoever they are".
his second single, "Shout Bamalama" (a rewrite of "Gamma Lamma"), Who originally wrote "Gamma Lamma"?
That was Redding, written during a trip to Los Angeles. Done.
The first was "Hey Hey Baby", but studio chief Jim Stewart thought it sounded too much like Little Richard. What was the second? Also, link
Little Richard.
The second was "These Arms of Mine". Linked Little Richard.
Recording and release
Put quotes around "These Arms of Mine" in the sample.
Done
In the 1963 session, "That's What My Heart Needs" and "Mary's Little Lamb" were recorded and cut in June 1963, the latter became one of the worst-selling singles by Redding. Semicolon after "1963".
Done
Some content here (i.e. second half of second paragraph, most of par. 3, middle of par. 4) should be put in a new "composition" section.
I prefer the current version. In recording sections you usually also describe the composition. Also it does not look good if I split it.--
