I believe to my soul that the Reverend Al Green has the easy-chair vibe that we all need desperately in our stressed lives. This gem is a true play-it-all-the-way-through album in the old school sense. As the soulful beats caress your troubled mind, Green’s vocals slide on in and get next to you, letting you know that he knows that you know why he sings “Baby, I’m Glad You’re Mine.” Highlights include the hit “Love and Happiness,” as well as a smooth grooving cover of Roy Orbison‘s “Pretty Woman.” But nothing tops the quiet storm of “So Beautiful,” which slowly builds until you feel the light. This is music invented for lazy afternoons and Sunday drives.
Guaranteed to promote mental health!
