This is a man whose psyche, voice & music exemplified Romantic Love; when all the things called "Valuable" in our civilization are counted and ranked, this damn well should be at the top no matter where the rocket engines take the human race.
First comment said it ALL. No lip sync, auto tune.... Pure true raw talent , this generation of real honest talent singers would laugh at lip syncing your song for pay -- not current singers, even the Mariah Carey s' and she can blow
You will always be in my heart back then when I was 15..now 65...you are the class..love. ..soft...n sometimes don't understand but it's okay because your soft voice love etc etc...will always calm me love you always ❤️ 💗
i always enjoyed watching Reverend Al Green LIVE.....He is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE MALE R&B SINGER, Followed by Marvin Gaye (Distant Lover), Otis Redding (Try a Little Tenderness, Cigarettes and Coffee) Barry White (Just The Way You Are, Your My First, My Last, My Everything) Selah
Happy 76th Birthday today April 13, 2022 to the great Al Green, born April 13, 1946. Al Green is one of the most enduring soul singers of the rock era, and is considered by many the most important male singer since Sam Cooke. He has also been referred to as "The Last of the Great Soul Singers." His early 70s work on Hi Records sounds as good today as it did then, and his legend has continued to grow over the past quarter century even as he generally turned his back on popular music. Green is the winner of 11 Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. He has also received the BMI Icon award and is a Kennedy Center Honors recipient. He was included in the list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time, ranking at No. 65, as well as its list of the 100 Greatest Singers, at No. 14.
Still love this man, now he sings for God, when I was young n others like me, had a real deep crush on him, he doesn’t know how much women loves him then n still now
Another Fun Fact : A pack of Cigarettes were 50 cents,and were sold at any age from cigarette machines.When you put the money in and pulled the lever for the brand that you want,your pack would drop out with a book of matches.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR VERY BEAUTIFUL, VERY CLEAR, VERY SMOOTH, VERY SWEET VOICE WITH US!!! YOUR VOICE IS TRULY A GIFT FROM OUR GOD!!! LORD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!! ALOHA!!!
Hi edagdwg hearing this special story of what only god can do love keeps people together enjoying each other is a real gift of true love Linda j. Peace linda j peace
Al Green and his band, and the funky way they recorded his first records, with the scratchy horns, that Hammond organ created a sound and music that was totally in a class in itself. His emotional falsetto, unique resonance of his body, created a new different 'color' in the sound of a soul singer. PERFECTION skinny body, and soul which oozed out his pores with every note, cemented him into fabric of Soul soul music.. Memphis, and Motown. I loved. The instrumentation and arrangements of those early songs, cemented and syndicated him into something totally unique.
It went into this "no talent-computer-dependent-so-called-artist", Seeing this i'm so sure that we have hit the peak of soul and we never ever will see another AL GREEN with the smooth and wonderful production from a true giant like WILLIE MITCHELL.
My girlfriend saw him in concert in the seventies. Got there early to get in front because he gave out red roses. We didn’t get a rose but amazing concert. Never forget it!
Al Green's music is absolutely timeless; will never get old; transcends time, genre, race and all barriers. Thankyou Rev. Green for your contributions to the music world, you will NEVER be forgotten....
In 72 have no idea I meet the Al Green music Was love a first tape My brother in 2012 ... maybe five to me a simply cassette and I.not stop listen his music - a friend from Ucrania (i think) ask me who’s the singer and borrow the cassette - because he loved He is amazing j- I can’t explain how.... but He is THE BEST SINGER EVER I NEVER HAVE A CHANCE TO ATEND SOME CONCERT - but I follow any Chanel talk o play his music and interviews. . Thanks
Just four words...the great Al Green.
AL green wearing that famous silk& wool suit. 70s style.❤
Pure class!
I now TOTALLY see how women could have lost their minds over him. Have Mercy!!!! Fione!!!!!

These days the young folk call it "swag".

When singers were singers. They stood alone, no lip syncing, auto tune, just pure talent! Where did it all go?
It went into this "no talent-computer-dependent-so-called-artist", Seeing this i'm so sure that we have hit the peak of soul and we never ever will see another AL GREEN with the smooth and wonderful production from a true giant like WILLIE MITCHELL.
The whole world at present is bogus as a $3.00 bill.
Love Al Green. But..there’s lots of great singers in today’s world as well.
I know what happened to rel beautiful natural singing 😍
