Al Green brings the same great artistry and soulfulness to gospel music as he does to his secular material. I recommend trying a compilation, either "One In A Million" (Word 1991)(a little hard to find, and short, but excellent), or "Greatest Gospel Hits" (Hi/The Right Stuff/Capitol 2001)(17 songs, some of which sound 1980s-dated). There is also a well-made documentary (dating from the early 1980s I think) available on DVD "The Gospel According to Al Green" (1999) that I think you will find quite interesting and fun.

I also squeezed in Sun Studios, Graceland, Stax and Willie Mitchell's studio. Spending time in the church was both surreal and spiritually and musically mindblowing!

I meant to go on the 23rd as we rolled out of Memphis. Unfortunately, a long night of booze, blues and BBQ prevented us from getting there. Hot damn!
