Description
Al Green. The man who needs no introduction? After all, you can see him on stage or hear him over the radio. You can view the publicity photos and the press clippings, and listen to the stories and the rumours. Then, he can be the leading man of your romantic dreams or the golden oldie that reminds you of your long, lost youth. This, though, would never be the whole truth. There's Al Green, the Last of the Great Soul Men and Al Green, the Country Preacher; Al Green, the Family Man and Al Green, the Sex Machine. Most of the time, you never know which Al you're going to get. And neither does he. You'll never find the real Al Green with a simple listen of his Greatest Hits collection. Now, you can. Take me to the River.
