Summary: Al Green and Robert Mugge --Wonderful!
Review: First of all, allow me to set the record straight. [Bible bashing!] I think not (Neil). Nothing could be further from the truth, folks. Al Green praises God in the production of "Gospel According....", and the Holy Book. Al Green doesn't force his opinions or views on any one. Robert Mugge does an excellent job at producing and directing. The movie is very straight-forward and easy to digest. After all, the title does read "Gospel 'ACCORDING TO' Al Green" (Neil). What did you expect? And as of this (and Neil's) writing, Al Green is 53 years of age. Trust me people, unlike some others (who shall remain nameless, here) at least I know what I'm talking about. Al Green is a living legend and this movie proves it. It's a good movie and it's worth every cent (Neil).

Summary: Fabulous
Review: I discovered this movie in 2001 on french TV arte. Yet I was in love with the song "Let's stay together" but this film just put me on my knees... not religiously I mean (nevertheless I'm quite beleiver) but musicaly. Eversince Al Green became my preferate singer and an exemple for being talentuous. writting this just made me remember I wanted (but never did) to just write THANK YOU Mr Greene on his official site... There I'm going right now.
PS: Sorry for my english but I'm french

Summary: Outstanding
Review: I first saw this documentary in 1990 on the Memphis PBS affiliate. I was stunned by the power of the music. Al has one of the best ears for gospel harmony in the business. The interviews are enlightening and entertaining, but the music steals this show. Let's hope he keeps on keeping on for many years to come.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the sound is glorious!
Review: The quality of sound on this DVD is truly remarkable given that it came from corroded and "baked" masters. Strong, muscular bass, creamy highs ... pure music heaven! Al Green is a strange and beautiful man, though this film does not shy away from depicting his darker half ... that ambitious, slick salesman persona. Still the purity, intensity, and passion of his sound shines through in spades. One of the best music documentaries made ... a lost classic?
