Deep acoustic guitar twanging.

No, thank you.

The song ended two minutes ago. Why's it still going? rollingpin

It is over.

It wasn't my cup of tea. All the songs were played too slowly and the tunes were aimless.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I shall give it 3 stars.

by Nightjar Sun Apr 18, 2021 7:39 pm

Well, I loved it.

It's not perhaps his best album, but in truth just about all of his albums sound like that.

So, if you actually like Al Green, they all merit a ★★★★ review.

Never quite getting that extra ★ though, due to their brevity and generally predictable formula.

It's a uniquely soulful sound in the annals of soul music though and Green's voice is soulfully unique.

Al Green - Call Me (1973)

I liked this album/I disliked this album because I am a racist.
