Greatest Hits Reviews
| 30 of 32 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD) I must first say that this review is NOT meant to disparage or criticize Al Green or his music but to point out why you should not buy this CD. For starters, the sound quality is NOT better than on the 1995-issued The Right Stuff reissue of this album. Second, the five bonus tracks featured on the 1995 edition are not included here--yet this is still a full-priced CD! Al Green was most definitely one of the most important and influential male R&B singers of the 1970s but I'd recommend going with original albums like "Let's Stay Together", "Call Me", "Al Green Explores Your Mind" and "I'm Still In Love With You" instead of this compilation which (perhaps unnecessarily) gets reissued yet again. 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful By D.C. Hanoy (Athens, Georgia) - See all my reviews This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD) don't get me wrong -- any al is good al, but 'greatest hits' comes up way short with several choice cuts missing. the 'hi and mighty' 2CD import set on hi records uk is the one to get. it uses the original masters and the sound is much better. you also get almost all of green's best tracks in one package. i do, however, like the cover photo on this one -- it's a classic. and if you have a dvd-audio player, definitely get the dvd-audio version with 5.1 surround -- it sounds great. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Greatest Hits (MP3 Download) This is classic soul. It brings all of Al Green's greatest hits together in a Masterpiece. If you have a older mom, aunt, uncle, etc. they'll probably love this. I mean its Al Green one of the best hands down singers about love, life and happiness. I'm in my 20's and I still love to hear his music! |
