Thank you, Cosmo for posting this.
Chester A. Molley left us April 23, 1969. He loved this song.

According to Wikipedia:
"Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" is a song co-written by soul singer Otis Redding and guitarist Steve Cropper. It was recorded by Redding twice in 1967, including once just three days before his death in a plane crash on December 10, 1967. The song was released on Stax Records' Volt label in 1968,[2]"
I thought we played the new hit at his going away party.
