    Al Green sings a song like you and me put on a suit. He gets inside it, and he makes it his own. He respects the material, even as he takes it over and turns it into an Al Green song. He had me from the get-go. (That's fifty years ago, lord have mercy.) The man is a treasure.

    That's the tightest and most tasteful drumming I have ever heard, he keeps it so simple and goes nuts at the end. And what singing, what great band all round 👏 xx

    *Al Green remains the most Real Soul and R&B Artist he's always been. Al Green is a Stars STAR like Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles, and Joe Williams were.*
    *Everyone Genuinely Loves Al* and I look back at my 1972-73 self (13 yrs old, I was digging Al Green, my fav and everyone knew it then and all through my journey) Pretty good taste for a pre teen.
    Great intimate venue and *these ladies have perfect sound and style to work on stage with Al Green*!
    Best Wellbeing Al Green and to all your Friends and Fans ...
