The first single from Al Green. As a teenager, his dad kicked him out of the house for listening to Jackie Wilson and Elvis. He dropped the final E from “Greene” after this record, and before becoming one of the most successful R&B singers of the 70’s. Al had ten Top 20 pop hits and 18 Top 20 R&B singles, then became a man of God after falling off a stage one night and injuring himself - he took it as a sign. Reverend Al is still ministering in Memphis, just up the street from Graceland.
