Hi everyone, was watching the video of Dock of the Bay a couple of days ago and was wondering does anyone know where this was filmed?

Hi Sandra, I don't really have an answer for you right now, but didn't Michael mention it in an interview, or on the "Decade" video? I seem to remember him mentioning it somewhere, but sadly, I didn't take note of it. I'll need to pull out my tape now... :D Take care Sandra and good luck! Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada :D

Hi Sylvie, yeah I think I will have to find my copy and listen a bit more carefully. :) Thanks Sylvie, take care.

The video was shot I believe in Waldo Point in Sausalito, California,

the original place Otis wrote "Dock Of The Bay", back in June 1967, Otis wrote all the lyrics onto napkin while rented a houseboat.. Otis went back to the studio in Nov 67 to record what would be his finest work.... Dec 10 1967 Otis and bar kays plane crashed in Lake Monova,  they all perished...... Dock of bay was released in jan 68 as steve cropper puts it "The hardest time was finishing the album"...

now Zelma Redding Said "Michaels cover brought her tear to my eye".

Yes it was very good cover, hope the info helps!!!

Hi Markham and welcome to the forum. Well first, thanks ever so much for the link to the article, I had lost it last year, so thanks! You're probably right about the location, because it makes perfect sense that  Michael would do that and I'm pretty sure I've heard him say so, but can't find where or when. In any case, that was very helpful. If you need help navigating the site or have questions, feel free to ask. Take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada :D
