Must See Concert (Plus Setlist): Al Green At The Beacon Theater

I've seen the reverand Al Green precisely two times. Once, I snagged a front row seat at Avery Fisher Hall. The other time, mid-orchestra at Beacon Theater. Both times were superb but it has been ten years.

Helen Bach watched rev. Green preach once  in Memphis. here is her review: "My friend chipped her tooth". Yup, that's all she's got.

SO…

I snagged a tix for his show at the Beaon theater  Wednesday, August 22nd.

Excited, so excited,  Debatably the greatest soul singer of the 1970s, a deacde where Marvin and Curtis were peaking, and Jame browns was priming, he is quite as good today…

Here is a setlist from Rev. Al's performance in Sydney, Australia, back in 2010.

And the moral of this is, once the Rev starts in on "Tired Of Being Alone", head for the exists.
