Al Green's Greatest Hits

by Al Green

Overview

This set is a straight reissue, cover art and all, of 1975's Al Green's Greatest Hits LP, which collected his ten biggest singles. A second volume followed, and for the 1995 CD edition of Greatest Hits, five of the songs from the second volume were tacked on, improving its length and value and essentially making this issue irrelevant, although the songs here are undeniably great and Green, as always, sings like God's favorite angel sent back to earth. ~ Steve Leggett
