The first time I heard this track was when I went over to the dark side and spent some time in the Modern room at a Togetherness Weekender. Well after about 50 hours of nearly non stop northern a bit of a change was in order.
Imagine my surprise when sometime later while reading, I heard the very same song coming from the TV when L was watching Ally McBeal.
Al Green – Keep On Pushing Love
Love the Reverend. Which album was this on originally Drew?
That's from his early 90s album “Your Heart's In Good Hands” with the two guys from The Beat/Fine Young Cannibals amongst others. It's produced and co-written by Arthur Baker apparently, although I only just looked into that. The albums pretty good, and Al is in fine form. I remember him being on Jonathan Ross or something similar at the time.
Album was called Don't Look Back over here, I've got a funny CD that I picked up in the Far East at the time. Probably dodgy.
There's no beating Al Green. I reckon it's his grounding in the Church…I don't know, but he has aged with dignity, actually looks like a grown up…and still blows people in their 20s off the stage.
He's just cool…that's all.
