Nobody absolutely nobody can ever come close to Al Green Swag cause he just got that all by himself AWESOME 😎 thank you Legend 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💚🌹
One my favorite singers and songs.Al has complete command of his voice,the essence of all great singers,e.g.Cooke,,Gaye,, Redding,and Ruffin just to name a few of the great ones!
Just good ole sanging!! He keeps the audience engaged with just his voice. Soul sanging at it’s best!! He feels what he is sanging and that is where that Gospel comes from. He is sanging from his soul.
And to add how the audience allowed themselves to be entertained while having respect for Al Green and the musicians, without constantly hooping and hollering and screaming and clapping like audiences do these days.
I wonder how many up and coming R&B people would LOVE to keep it real like Al. Their producers may consider that kind of rawness bad for business. Al kept it real, always. He was true to himself.
My favorite Al Green song! I was 14 year's old when this song came out. And if you want to see me dance play this song! As a matter of fact I'm playing his greatest hits in my car right now! I love me some Al Green!
Yvonne Major ..my sentiments exactly! Still in love with you album.. I got to hear some “AL” everyday! Check out some more of his live performances. suggestion BELLE
The Band was so exceptional in this session .. its music history .. the background singers made Green stop at one point and cry .. they are roots reggae and sometimes doowop essence .. and they carried .. yes THEY CARRIED one of the greatest soul singers of all times to ever higher levels.
It nice to see how the audience allowed themselves to be entertained while having respect for Al Green and the musicians, without constantly hooping and hollering and screaming and clapping like audiences do these days.
Listen to Teenie Hodges and Larry Lee on guitars, Aaron Purdie on drums, Buddy Garrett and the horns! Then ice it off with Al's smooth/rough combination....perfection!!!
Black folk used to get lost in their art this way because imagination and expression was really all they had to escape reality. They themselves were their entertainment and found joy in taking you on that ride. Al Green was a tough act to follow
Al Green was so humble. During this time, they actually played small town clubs. At age 10, I remember Al Green playing at a little club in Bowdon, Georgia.❤️
Back AGAIN!!! Can NEVER Get Enough Of Mr. Al Green. You Folks Were The Luckiest EVER Being Live For This Performance. I'm So Darn JEALOUS...ForReal...FR!!! You Could Never Understand How I Feel About THIS!!! So Grateful For Sharing With Us...WITH ME!!! 😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘
LORD, LORD , LORD ! Look what this man's done to me, I just cant stop watching and listening to his music it's been 40yrs I'm hooked. SOMEBODY BETTER DO SOMETHING ME ! LOL ! Young Al was so sexy, right ladies ? 2019 STILL HERE !
Ha ha!!!! back when music was an art. Al used a broad brush to paint his feelings so full of color and unique expressions. Nothing like it and nothing like Brotha Al G. Thanks Al

No one carried anyone. It’s just great musical harmony meant to be together and appreciating each other all the while. Why can’t we just leave it at that?
This has to be the same performance Al Green did on the New York-based TV Show "Soul!" (labeled elsewhere as from "1972"), aired on January 3, 1973 (though he did appear on the program February 16, 1972). It was a great performance and one which touched a lot of people!

At the time "Look What You Done For Me" was at #10 on Billboard's Top 100 chart, four weeks later it would peak at #4 {for 1 week}... Between 1967 and 2008 the Forrest, Arkansas native had thirty-six records on the Hot R&B Singles chart, and sixteen made the Top 10 with six reaching #1, "Let's Stay Together" {1971}, "I'm Still in Love with You" {1972}, "You Ought to Be with Me" {1972}, "Livin' for You" {1973}, "L-O-V-E (Love)" {1975}, and "Full of Fire" {1975}... The Reverend Al celebrated his 74th birthday ten days ago on April 13th, 2020... * "Look What You Done For Me" was Al Green's first of four of his records that peak at #2 on the R&B chart, his other three #2 records were "Call Me (Come Back Home)" {1973}, "Here I Am (Come and Take Me)" {1973}, and "Sha-La-La (Make Me Happy)" {1974}... And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, the remainder of the Hot Soul Singles' Top 10 on April 23rd, 1972: At #3. "I'll Take You There" by the Staple Singers #4.

The best ever Ron Isley also
@@dpruitt1458 You're right about Ron Isley. Underrated singer and still going strong at 81 y/o. I can hardly believe it.
The band was on point.
It must be said: 1 of the greatest artist of all time!
Timeless music
Never seen a singer take a drink a glass a water and not miss a note.
One of the greatest live performances I ever saw...
I said he was sooo smooth
To all of you who had the pleasure of seeing al green live I’m...JEALOUS
Just good ole sanging!! He keeps the audience engaged with just his voice. Soul sanging at it’s best!! He feels what he is sanging and that is where that Gospel comes from. He is sanging from his soul.
And to add how the audience allowed themselves to be entertained while having respect for Al Green and the musicians, without constantly hooping and hollering and screaming and clapping like audiences do these days.
John David that is most definitely true.
Take it to church. "Running in my feet, clapping in my hands..."
Waddup Sis!!! U know I always say that Al Preached LOVE
4:30 to 5:50 is priceless, raw soul and musical emotion , we may never witness anyone like Al ever again
Bro', you KILLED IT!!!
This is more than a performance, it's for real.
I wonder how many up and coming R&B people would LOVE to keep it real like Al. Their producers may consider that kind of rawness bad for business.
Al kept it real, always. He was true to himself.
My favorite Al Green song! I was 14 year's old when this song came out. And if you want to see me dance play this song! As a matter of fact I'm playing his greatest hits in my car right now! I love me some Al Green!

@@rodneymitchell7970I will!
AL GREEN. you have a voice that can be imitated but not duplicated. Al, you have a voice of GOLD.
This the type of soul that can't be duplicated. All the elements are in the right place, the voice, the audience, the band! Classic soul!
The Band was so exceptional in this session .. its music history .. the background singers made Green stop at one point and cry .. they are roots reggae and sometimes doowop essence .. and they carried .. yes THEY CARRIED one of the greatest soul singers of all times to ever higher levels.

Guess ya gotta really love Mr. Al Green to like this outta focus video. I'd watch a black screen to hear him sing the phone book. ❤
band is tight well in tuned well rehearsed and paying attention to the leader as they should - excellent
Al Green was and still is OUTSTANDING THANK YOU....
The Band was so exceptional in this session .. its music history .. the background singers made Green stop at one point and cry .. they are roots reggae and sometimes doowop essence .. and they carried .. yes THEY CARRIED one of the greatest soul singers of all times at some points.
Damn, you are so right. I have been watching this on repeat for years. That drummer at 3:22 is not playing, hell the whole damn band is JAMMIN!
No one carried anyone. It’s just great musical harmony meant to be together and appreciating each other all the while. Why can’t we just leave it at that?
Lead guitar licks...fire🔥
The young brother in the front is mesmerized
Mark Joey So is this older woman !
