Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Amazon.com

Amazon.com essential recording

One of the must-own soul albums, Greatest Hits is fattened with extra tracks in this reissue for a total of 21 songs. Al Green brought the Memphis Sound into the '70s by slightly softening it, melding smooth funkiness with his miraculous voice and innate sensitivity: his love songs, while perfect for the bedroom, are as conversational as they are blatantly seductive. By adding the likes of "Belle," a 1977 single that's a near-goodbye to the pop life, to the original lineup of "Let's Stay Together," "Look What You Done for Me," "Call Me," and the others, this edition of Greatest Hits also intriguingly fills out the story. --Rickey Wright

Romantic classic R&B - Reviewed on 2008-08-10

Over the years, I've gotten to love this collection of Al Green songs even more. If you want to set a romantic mood, definitely include this one!

oooh, so nice - Reviewed on 2008-08-09

It's wonderful listening to Al Green's greatest hits. The songs are as fresh today as they were when they were recorded many years ago. Focus in on "Take Me to the River." Boy, is it hot!

A must have for Al Green Lovers - Reviewed on 2008-08-03

Al Green's Definitive Collection a must have for any Al Green lover. Great music, great sounds, a repetition of much of what I already have by the artist, but a great compilation.

Romantic Ballads Abound. - Reviewed on 2007-10-25

Mr. Green has a sensual style that seems to be sadly missing in much of todays music. His voice blends well with romantic ballads. "Lets Stay Together," was one of the best songs of the 1970's. "Take Me By The Hand, & Lay Your Head On My Pillow," also have their own distinctive appeal depending on ones mood. These songs have a smooth pleasant feel of a less hurried era, when you need a lift stop here & listen.

Reminisce on Days Gone By - Reviewed on 2007-05-14

1 customer found this review helpful, 1 did not.

This compilation of hits, took me back to the days of yesteryear, when I was a little girl, in NE DC. My Childhood was a good time and there was always good music. Music that made you happy, music that identified, with whatever you were going through, and Al Green was a staple in my family's component set. To hear his smooth, melodic voice again, transports me back to those days and makes me reminisce on those days long gone.
