Before you comment on what i am going to say .. Listen to some of his music .BB King said he is one of the best blues song writers he has ever met . That hearing his music you think he has lived a life time . And at the time he was maybe 20 . Johnny Lang You hear a lot of the great band s and the soulful vocals from the 70 s in his music today .

When I lived in midtown Memphis my next door neighbor was a 80 years old woman driving her big old Cadillac when she had a flat in 1981.Some black man offered to change her flat but she was scare and he finally talk to her long enough and said he was a preacher and that work. He change the flat in a new suit which was all wrinkle up when he got through and she try to pay him and he didn’t take it. He told her his name and it didn’t register with the old lady until somebody told her that was Al Green the famous soul singer. He is a great man and a great Christian.

I saw Al Green midday on a Glastonbury Sunday. I am not confident I'd been to sleep in the previous 48 hours. There was a lot of dance music and a lot of rock'n'roll. It's also true that my and my friends where in a HIGHly emotional state. The reverend came on in an all white suit bearing roses to share his gift and his love. It was honestly the greatest thing I ever saw or heard. Could soothe any soul. A gift from god.
its impossible to see this and be sad.. he is pure joy

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.
I love this man. He makes my heart very happy.
He's one of the gold age when singing live was amazing 👏 wish I could see him live !!!
Reverend Al is a true legend.
What a Song, what an act. Al has it in his blood and bones.
Some singers just have an energy that is so contagious, that you can't help smiling, and just feeling good.....thank you Al Green 😊 What a voice, what a performance!!!
