This album is really a throwback. I feel like usually I am either listening to funk or some sort of weird futuristic, spacey shit. This, however, sounds like The Temptations from the fifties. Whereas some people like progressing, I would rather regress especially since we are nearing disco.
Al Green has the smoothest, sexiest voice since Sam Cooke. In fact, this entire album could be Sam Cooke and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. He also covers a Bee Gees song which, surprisingly, is not the disaster it could have been.
You are certainly not going to be stunned by the originality of this album but you are going to enjoy the easy listening.
RATING: 4/5
