This Friday is an another boring day in the scene with no great releases so I’ll just publish next article submitted for our Music competition. We’ve received over 40 posts by now which means there’s enough music articles for the whole next week. Don’t worry if your posts aren’t published until Sunday when the competition ends, it will be still counted, only published little later. We won’t reveal any stats till Sunday so if you want to win, you need to be really active.

One of my favorite kinds of music, bar none, is old fashioned soul. And Al Green is right up there with Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, and Teddy Pendergrass as my favorite singers. So I found it really awesome that there was a new Al Green Album, and thanks to (assuming) one-time group LAYITDOWN, we get it 3 weeks before it hits store shelves!
Al Green’s long-in-the-works album co-produced by the Roots’ Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson and keyboardist James Poyser finally has a release date. “Lay It Down” is due May 27 via Blue Note and features guest vocals from John Legend, Corinne Bailey Rae and Anthony Hamilton, plus contributions from the Dap-King Horns, guitarist Chalmers “Spanky” Alford and bassist Adam Blackstone.
Reverend Al Green (b. 13 April 1946) is an American gospel and soul singer who enjoyed great popularity in the early- and mid-1970?s. ?Let?s Stay Together? and ?Tired of Being Alone? were two of his biggest hits.
