Really, seems like time-and-again, during my researches of Motown’s catalog, always notice something: Motown selling Al Green!
Apparently, during the eighties, Motown once had the rights to own and rerelease his classic HI records, even greatest hits, as if he was their own, added to their already rich catalog even richer. Hey, when I’ve bought a Motown Grover Washington Jr. Greatest Hits CD some time back, I’ve almost thought Grover’s music was pure Motown, only to learn that most of his Motown-compiled music, was actually Kudu-recorded, but atleast he did record for Motown once; on one record. Al never actually in-person lent even a note in their studios.
But hey; never too late, to finally officially legit-ize it; as long as he’s still got his awesome, soul-soaring voice, who wants to see Al Green actually collaborate with Motown, for atleast one Al Green Motown studio album, just to say that he IS a Motown recording artist?
