      • Mourning In the Morning is an album by the American blues singer and guitarist Otis Rush, released in 1969. Though Rush had been cutting singles since 1955, this was his first album. It infuses Rush's deep blues sound with soul and rock. The album was panned by many critics, but has since developed a cult following.
      Originally released on Cotillion, the album was re-released in the early 1990s; it was also re-released in 2006 by Collectables Records.


      Production


      Mourning in the Morning was coproduced by Mike Bloomfield and Nick Gravenites. It was recorded at FAME Studios, in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Duane Allman and members of the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section played on the album.


      Critical reception


      Reviewing a reissue, the Chicago Tribune wrote that "an instrumental workout on Aretha Franklin`s 'Baby I Love You' is a spine-chilling showcase for the southpaw guitarist`s extraordinary string bending."
