The Reverand! His music speaks for itself. One of the most wonderful and original singers in popular music. "Let's Stay Together" and "I'm Still In Love With You" are arguably his best albums but he releases great work today and still gives fantastic live performances.
Interesting info...
(Thanks Wikipedia) On October 18, 1974, Mary Woodson, a longtime friend of Al Green, assaulted him, then killed herself. It is believed that she ardently wished to be more than just a friend to Al Green. One night, she left the guest quarters, then entered the main section of the house without permission. She sneaked into his bathroom to make a surprise attack. With no warning whatsoever, she threw a large pot of sticky boiling grits over him as he was undressed and preparing to shower. As Al Green writhed in pain, she ran into another part of the house and committed suicide by shooting herself.
