Al Green 'Call Me' | May Classics 2019 | VMP Unboxing

When Al Green released 'Call Me' in April of 1973, it was his fourth album in 24 months. Despite such heavy output, each album grew in popularity, and was more sultry. Al had become a pop star, a mainstream success, known to black and white, young and old. He was a sex symbol. Sensual — and inviting. Steamy. 'Call Me' sold over a million copies, and so did the singles from the album. Al Green was golden. But instead of a glittering nirvana, that success began to look like the golden calf. The call Al was waiting for would come from above, and that connection became solid while touring with this album.
