Pain in My Heart is the debut album of soul singer-songwriter Otis Redding. Redding recorded for Volt Records, a subsidiary of Memphis, Tennessee based Stax Records; Volt releases were issued on Atco, which also released this album. The album includes four successful Redding singles released in 1962 and 1963: "These Arms of Mine" (R&B #20; US #85), "That's What My Heart Needs" (R&B #27), "Security" (US #97), and the title track (US #61). Since Billboard Magazine did not publish an R&B singles chart from late 1963 to early 1965, the R&B chart peaks of the latter two singles are unknown.
