Al Green - Minister of Soul

He did it again. My all time favorite music artist Al Green, the master of spiritual soul with the golden voice, has released a new album, Everything's OK. This album is much more than ok.








Listen here: http://www.bluenote.com/algreenplayer/ if you need to be convinced.
The New York Times has a meaningful article about him and the album:

With A Little Help From Her Friends

Lately I heard on Wholewheatradio about Mary Travers, of the Peter Paul & Mary folk-group. She's suffering from leukemia and is hopefully getting a bone marrow transplant in the New York hospital where she'll be for 6 weeks or more.
Let's all help her get through this, even if you don't know her. That would be a good use of the internet, to get people from all over the world to join for a good cause.
Forget your selfish thoughts to blog about for a moment and help a lady in distress.

You can do this by sending her 'get well' wishes, something to cheer her up, to the special email-address getwellmary@aol.com. Let's hear it for the girl!
