Customer Reviews
5 star album, 1 star mastering job
I agree with the other reviews -- this album is excellent and, for me, is Al at his best.
I wanted to add my two cents about this particular edition of it, though. I bought this when it came out just to hear the bonus tracks and was horrified at how horrible this cd sounded compared to the previous cd edition on the same label (The Right Stuff) as well as various other cds that contain some of the same hit tracks. The mastering engineer here definitely used too many of the tools at his disposal in an effort to enhance what was already on the master tapes. Unfortunately removing the analog tape hiss (not that it was excessive to begin with anyway) removed the sense of life from these recordings. And other processing REALLY screwed up some of these songs, causing the vocals to become an unfocused mess (I've heard that this is the result of an attempt to widen the stereo image). Do yourself a favor and seek out the previous cd on the same label (unfortunately no bonus tracks there) or an import version on the Demon label.
this is his best
Al Green was the first great soul singer in the 70's. Plenty of releases until today; yet he failed to release a better album than this, with another one called "call me". These 2 albums stand apart from all the rest of his work.
This album definitely sets the standard of what we call today Smooth Soul.
If you are new to Al Green's work, this album next to "call me", are the ones. You will not regret it.
Possibly One of the Greatest
First and foremost, this CD is a work of art. This is one of the best R&B CD's I've ever heard. I mean, its up there with Stevie Wonder's "Talking Book" and "Songs In The Key of Life", Donny Hathaway's "Donny Hathaway", and Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin On". To be honest, Al Green is not my favorite singer but this collection of songs is probably the best that I've heard. This is a must have that should be in any music lover's collection.
