5.0 out of 5 stars Al Green...Nobody's done it better, November 7, 2001

To listen to Al Green; especially on this compilation is what an excellent grape is to what makes a fine wine. The music on this work is his absolute soul. Listen to the yearnings from in the beginning of his career, his restored faith in God and the love he has for music. Al invites you into the soul of his life. I personally met Al in 1983, and spent an entire day with him in his (then) Memphis Studio. (Al Green International). I can tell you that he is a perfectionist and highly critical of himself if the "music isn't flowing." He is an awe to watch. The experience was especially gratifying because he shared his workday with just a devoted fan. Al is all that; giving his heart, talent and his mind for us to savor. To buy this recording is to understand the drive and excellence of this man called Al Green. Enjoy the wine!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's so easy being with Green, November 25, 2000

Bye bye Barry White, you're not even close baby. The Reverend Al is where it's at. Could there be a sexier cd-set? Al Green ooohs, oozes, and ohhhhs through the most lovingest tracks vinyl ever saw. These are 54 songs of feelin', lovin', groovin', and funkin' of the most sublime order. Ain't no need for Viagra for the Reverend Al is on the spin.
