    Oh my God, he barely sings 2 seconds of a classic song, and instantly trips off the light fantastic.
    Al Green is truly that "one in a million" voice for the ages.
    A living legend.
    Well done, Rev Green, sir.
    We really appreciate you.

    Ain’t no way Al Green is 77 years old. He doesn’t look a day over 65ish. He still has that Arkansas twang when he talks.

    I think he was getting tired of being a preacher and still had that longing to perform his songs. He will never not have an audience that's for sure!
