The quality of this man's voice will never be duplicated. Period.
No one has ever had such velvety smooth texture, with the southern soulful growel and gritty getdown all in the same package. Al Green ran the whole gamut as it pertain to soul music.
That's why he's in a class all by himself. Salute to the best who's ever done it.

Man, who sings like that today? Absolutely no one!!!...Rev. Al was so smooth, cool and classy. Epic song.

Now that’s what you call a perfect performance! Amazing 🤩 all the way through. Al Green was phenomenal!

[BillyColeII-drdk]

Refreshing, no vulgar lyrics, no killing, just a beautiful song you can understand....

When this song hit the charts the birth rate jumped 9 months later.

[Swaggletail]

This puts everything on the charts today to shame. So glad I came up in the 70s.

Silky smooth velvety voice.
That's Al Green.
The Best who's ever done it.

Always has a live band. Never lip syncs

[janajamer]

Always loved Al Green's vocals and music! Absolutely no one can hold a candle to him! Thanx for sharing MS!

The crowd finally got with him. But that dude knew how to hold the audience and the song in the palm of his hands in all of his performances!

[felicitasreyes]

I don't get tired listening to him and this song.

[Magravated]

I love the horns in his band. They add so much to the song. Thanks for posting!

[SuperBeachbum]

Very few artists have that self confident swag when on stage ! Jackie Wilson had it, James Brown, Prince, Al Green and must include Elvis Presley !

Yessir, the Right Reverend Al Green!!!

good old days. I was a small child when this show aired. We had some awesome music back in the day.

Mr.Al Green had a TIGHT BAND with a horn 🎺🎷🎺🎷that could sing 🎤 along with Mr Aaron Purdie on drums 🥁, and Mr. Tennie Hodges on guitar 🎸. Check out Mr. Al Green’s performance from the show SOUL 1972 or 73 hosted by Mr.Ellis Hazlip from PBS channel 13 New York City.

I love Al! I always loved his left arm and shoulder click. So much soul. Jewelry, teeth and all. Beautiful man. His performance was always before his time.❤❤

Alguém ouvindo Al Green em 2025?
Se quiser falar de amor, fale com o… Al Green. Afinal, no brilho dos anos 1970, nenhum cantor de soul soube combinar tão bem a explosão energética do ritmo com as linhas românticas escritas por ele. Sendo uma das vozes mais reluzentes do soul, o artista dominou a arte de fazer e interpretar hits românticos!
Tempo em que as músicas tocavam os corações... sentimentos verdadeiros...❤

[thomasfranco]

The horn section and Al Greens vocals make a perfect COMBO. What a National Treasure. My mother god bless her soul. Loved his music when I was a Teenager, she always played his greatest hits Album. She loved the way he sang the Bee Gees How Can You Mend a Broken Heart. I cry when I hear it to this day.

I don't understand how some people in the audience weren't grooving, they must've been dead
