    Another great soul singer. Al Green had a lot of great songs in the 70's including "Take Me To The River", "Tired Of Being Alone", "I'm Still In Love With You", "Love & Happiness", "Let's Stay Together" etc. He also became a pastor after facing a tragedy in his life (girlfriend's suicide) & performed gospel music for a time.

    The Reverend takes you to church. When my girlfriends and me were getting ready to go clubbing (took hours) we always played Al's greatest hits album, Isaac Hayes and Percy Sledge. We were soul sisters and we were ready to go out and dance the night away (underage at the beginning). We didn't go to meet guys, or get drunk; we went to DANCE and boy did we.
    Al will always hit that sweet spot guys, cannot be avoided.
