The Belle Album is the 12th studio album by soul musician Al Green. It is his first album recorded without longtime producer Willie Mitchell, owner of Green's former label, Hi Records. With Mitchell and his label Green also abandoned the famed Hi Rhythm Section, which had previously played a large part in defining Green's distinctive musical style. This also marks the first instance in which Green plays lead guitar on his records.
The Belle Album is a celebration of something new. A new Al Green. For the first time in his seven years as a singer, Al is writing all his own songs, producing them in his own Memphis studio, and acting as his own lead guitarist. Al says he wants his new music to "make you shout for joy" and if you can sit still when the new Al Green hits your turntable, you'd better check to see if you're still alive. Recorded at American Music Recording Studios, 3208 Winchester Road, Memphis, Tennessee 38108
Album · 1977 · 8 Songs. Al Green was one of the main soul artists who could turn from singles to albums with equal intensity. While so much soul music derived its power from its compact structure - and Green’s hits are a perfect manifestation of this - Green knew how to expand on a basic groove and make it something equally hypnotic while consistently shifting the dynamics. He would never go for the full-on epic style of Isaac Hayes or Barry White - or their lulling rhythms, but he would find ways to use his voice for terrific effect. It often isn’t the words that matter but the way his voice skates over the flow.
Loving You soul, gospel, funk Преподобный Эл Грин - один из тех людей, которые настолько приятны, что это может раздражать. Добродушный святоша с голосом, сладким, как патока, нерушимой верой, ежесекундно излучающий любовь ко всему человечеству - за вычетом голоса, такой персонаж всем известен в лице Неда Фландерса из Симпсонов, а уж его-то не.
Al Green severed his ties with longtime producer Willie Mitchell in 1977, establishing his own backup band and seizing the production reins. But he hadn't yet made the final break with soul; this was the last secular work he would make for many years, and it was brilliant, even though it didn't come close to equaling his previous commercial heights. In retrospect, many just didn't understand where he was going, while others were turned off by the blurred lyrical focus of songs like "Belle.
