	Lay It Down Soul New Release 48449 Blue Note Sealed 2008 2LP. "Al Green's New Album, Lay It Down, Doesn't Sound Like A Return To His Early-'70s Style. It Sounds Like It Was Literally Recorded Back Then And Just Now Brought Out Of The Vault. But Unlike His Last Two Would-Be Comeback Projects, This One Wasn't Helmed By The Producer Who Actually Cut Those Classics With Him, Willie Mitchell; Green's New Collaborators, Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson (Of The Roots) And James Poyser (A Frequent Erykah Badu Collaborator), Have Taken An Even Greater Interest In Painstakingly Re-Creating That Sound. Fans Will Note A Slight Maturing In Green's Range, But At 62, He Glides Between His Chuckling Lower Register And Breezy Falsetto With The Same Ease As Ever. The Musical Elements, Meanwhile, Resonate Even More Faithfully To His Old Catalog — From The Brassy Horn Contributions Of The Dap-Kings (Who Also Back Winehouse And Sharon Jones), To The String Section That Shows Up On Five Of The 11 Tracks, To The Deft, Just-Barely-Held-Together-Sounding Chemistry Of The Four Core Soul Instrumentalists. People Associate "Soul" With "Sweat," Yet The Best Numbers Here — Such As The Exquisite "All I Need" — Have Green And ?Uestlove Reminding Us That Sometimes The Sexiest Effect Is Achieved By Appearing To Do As Little As Possible. And When He Occasionally Lets That Discipline Slip, It's As Aggressively Sensual As The Singer's Allowed Himself To Get Since Well Back Into His Pre-Gospel Period. As For The Vocal Contributions From Anthony Hamilton, Corinne Bailey Rae, And John Legend, It's A Compliment To Say That These Well-Meaning Intruders Barely Register — Inasmuch As They Scarcely Wreck The Time-Machine Illusion. But Let's Not Look A Gift Horse In The Mouth: One Of Popular Music's Great Voices Is Being Flattered By His Surroundings In A Way He Hasn't In A Long, Long Time.

	Al Green Gets Next To You Soul New - LP SHL 32062 Hi Sealed 1971 Original With Custom Song Hype Sticker On Shrink Wrap. “After The Shaky Start Of Green Is Blues, Al Green And Producer Willie Mitchell Established Their Classic Sound With Green's Second Album, Gets Next To You. The Main Difference Is In The Rhythm Section. Abandoning The Gritty Syncopations Of Deep Southern Soul, The Hi Rhythm Section Plays It Slow And Seductive, Working A Sultry, Steady Pulse That Green Exploits With His Remarkable Voice. Alternating Between Sam Cooke's Croon And Otis Redding's Shout, Green Develops His Own Distinctive Style, And Gets Next To You Only Touches The Surface Of Its Depth. Although The Album Is Filled With Wonderful Moments, Few Are As Astonishing As Green And Mitchell's Reinterpretation Of The Temptations' "I Can't Get Next To You," Which Turns The Original Inside Out.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide.... more details
