THE GREATEST SOUL SINGER OF ALL TIME......... AL GREEN........ part 2

From 1976 to 1981 Al Green had released another 6 Albums for Hi Records, although the last 2 were recorded for Hi , they were released by "Myrrh" a subsidiary of a Christian Record Company called "Word Records"

Full of fire 1976
Have a good time 1976
Belle 1977
Truth "n" time 1978
The lord will make a way 1980
Higher plane 1981

Al Green had always included at least 1 track dedicated to "The Lord" on all most of his Albums, but for the last 2 Albums featured here, He went all the the way, and these 2 Albums were full of Gospel Tracks!

The reason Al Green gave why he finally went all the way into Gospel from Soul Music, was during a concert in 1979, he fell 12 feet from a Concert stage and spent several weeks in Hospital, he saw this as "The Lord" pushing him all the way into "Gospel"

Incidentally (apart from his 1st ever release) his First full Gospel Album "The lord will make a way" was Al Green's First Album not to Chart in USA, in either "Pop" or R&B Charts!

I have selected my Favorite Track from each of the Albums here,
