Al Green



           Al Green is one of the great voices of soul and rhythm and blues music.   Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995, Green has a body of hits that guarantees his place in music history.

           A personal  tragedy in 1974 caused Green to begin to reevaluate his life.  Eventually he went into the ministry and to this day continues to pastor a church in Memphis, Tennessee.

          When I first heard "Everything Is Gonna be Alright" in 1987 I was blown away and Al Green's Soul Survivor album became one of my favorites.
