Al Green, September, 2007

By Jake Sprecher

What can you say about Al Green? Well, one can think of a few things, the first being this: Al Green is a living legend. He was a giant in the heyday of soul rhythm and blues. His name hangs with the big boys, like James Brown, Marvin Gaye, and Sly Stone. The albums Green released during the early 1970’s under the guidance of Hi Records guru Willie Mitchell are quite simply among the greatest R&B records ever recorded. The majority of people are merely familiar with Al’s super hits, such as “Let’s Stay Together,” and “I’m Still In Love With You,” but it is important to remember that songs like these were gems within masterpiece works. His voice was, and still is, like heaven on earth. A Baptist Reverend since 1979, he is a man of passion, love, and soul to the bone. Jake Sprecher of Synthesis had the privilege of catching up with Al, who sings what he means and talks what he sings.
