I also have The Absolute Best as well as the Definitive Al Green. Both are digitally remastered. You may not think this is a big deal but it is! I also had a few of his CDs that were produced in the 90s with some of these same songs. The newer digital remastered versions have full sound especially on the high end. Even if you don't have a fancy stereo you can still hear the vast improvement. In some ways I am upset that I now have to purchase remastered versions of many of my cds but it seems to be worth it. For those of you who don't know how the remastering process works...The original master tapes are pulled from the vault. An engineer painstakinly goes thru each track and makes the needed adjustments using computers as well as his trained ear. The track that has been remastered is now digitally recorded at 24 bits, 48KHZ or higher. It is then mixed backdown to the normal cd 16bit/44Khz. If all went well the new product sounds like a new recording. Voices are clear and precise as heard on the master tape. The new result sounds shockingly better than any record or old cd! All 1960s, 70s recordings can benefit from this process. Surprisingly some 90s recordings do to.Free Music Review: Still Laying it DOWN!!!

This guy is still amazing after all these years. I recently ( as I'm sure many of you did) seen The Rev. throw down on the BET music awards...a show that was headlined by every New RAP ARTIST that's out today and it was a 70's Soul icon that broughtthe house down! Here you get all his greatest hits including the classics "Let's Stay Together", "Still In Love" and "Love & Happiness"to name just 3 classics. Let's get married, Call me, Here I am, Tired of Being alone are also classics that will never die. In todays world of lack luster artisits and empty lyrics this is a great way to revisit the BEST OF SOUL music from one of the best ever. Rev. Al Green is soulful, powerful and is one of the most influential R&B Artists of all time. This is a great compilation for beginners and If you've never heard Al Green and you want to get into the way music use to be when it had real soul...look no further..."Sha-La-La"Free Music Review: Even more Al than last time!

Let's see... when last we left off in 1995, 'Al Green's Greatest Hits' had the original album plus 5 extra tracks for a total of 15. Apparently that wasn't enough... and it wasn't! No "Take Me to the River".
Well this time round they got it right. Now we get that song plus 5 MORE songs for good measure.
So, if you're like me, you need the upgrade. If this is your first exposure to Al Green, this has everything you'd ever want or need by the man.
Now the only thing I have to get used to is a different track order...
Free Music Review: Excellent Soul Album!

He's really good at what he does,and obviously still gets praised for it. I decided to actually really listen to him closely and found that I really liked most of his stuff. It's nice easy going, and a nice alternative to sam cooke and marvin gaye. Love and Happiness is good. Let's stay together is classic! Im still in love with you so familiar to tons of people. LOVE is my favorite track/song that he's done. I think he's a really great singer and there are very few artists today that can capture his presence in a good way.Free Music Review: So sweet

If you want romance in your music this is the quintessential cd. It is Al Greens early works that put him in my heart oh so many years ago. Truly beautiful and romantic. Listen with someone you love and you will have Valentines Day all year round.
