[@VILJL]

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.

[@sherrijones929]

I've loved this man/musician since I first heard him in junior high school....a phenomenal entertaining and the last I heard many years ago, he started into Christian ministry. I knew there was something special in his songs even from long ago, a spiritual nuance to many of them. Good for you, Mr. Green.....I imagine you are enjoying and reaping the benefits of your decision....I love your music and may God bless you!

Al Green is the essence of true, bonafide SOUL MUSIC -- based on watching shows like American Idol, The Voice and others -- it appears America is no longer producing soul music, or soul artists. Wow, it's a pleasure witnessing the virtuousity and rich natural soulful vocalese of Mr. Green. So glad he's still alive and well. Wish he'd also do a national tour ala Stevie Wonder, from 2015.

From the time I was in Elementary School the "Rev" (affectionately) has been a ROCK in the R&B World. I had the pleasure of seeing him live finally in the early 90's on the Apple Campus in Cupertino, CA. He has stood the Test,of Time. His voice is still smooth and deeply Soulful. His choice of "Accompnyment" (borrowed from the movie "Brother, Where Art Thou?) speaks volumes of how much he is regarded by his peers. He has always eminated a certain Grace and Presence with a Smile that Radiates Warmth. Just a Good Brother.
