Otis is the son of rhythm and blues musician, bandleader, and impresario Johnny Otis. Otis began performing professionally at the age of 12, often disguising himself with dark glasses and a false moustache so that he could play in nightclubs.[1]
Otis is a guitarist who also plays piano, organ, drums and bass. In 1969 Al Kooper asked Otis to play on the second installment of the Super Session album; which had included Stephen Stills (whom Otis was to replace) and Mike Bloomfield, in addition to Kooper who produced and played on the album. Kooper and the then 15 year old Otis recorded the album, Kooper Session over one weekend. Shuggie also appeared with his father and with singer Mighty Mouth Evans on the album "Cold Shot" released on Kent Records in 1969.
Otis then released Here Comes Shuggie Otis, his first solo album in 1970. While growing up around many musicians such as Sly Stone and Arthur Lee of the band Love, Otis ended up recording with several other artists such as Frank Zappa (playing electric bass on "Peaches en Regalia" on Zappa's 1969 Hot Rats), Cal Tjader, Etta James, Eddie Vinson, and more recently Mos Def.
In 1974 Otis released Inspiration Information. The album took almost three years to finish, and all songs were written and arranged by Otis and he almost exclusively played every instrument on the album. However, Inspiration Information" was far from a commercial success. After the release of Inspiration Information Otis was approached Billy Preston on behalf of The Rolling Stones asking him to join the band for their upcoming world tour. He declined the offer, along with the chance to work with Quincy Jones in helping produce Otis' next album (which was never recorded). After a series of such refusals and concert incidents, Otis gained the reputation of being prima dona, and became less sought after as a session musician and ultimately lost his recording contract with Epic Records.
