Summary: GREAT ALBUM BAD REMASTERING JOB
Comment: This is one of Al greens best albums he ever did.I used to have the original CD but I decided to get the new remastered version,and boy was I shocked the sound qualitiy is not good at all the highs are very muffled and the songs that fade out are faded out faster. So don,t get this version get the original it only has 2 less songs but the sound is A lot better and it is cheaper.

Summary: Worth every bit of the hype/ Al Green is the King of 70's soul
Comment: Yep, that's right, I said it and he is! The first of Al Green's three masterpieces, "Let's Stay Together" finally captures Al Green at the peak of his raw yet so seductive extrodinarily elastic whisper of vocal power. His voice really stretches out on tracks like "What Is This Feeling?"(The La-La-La cadence at the break in the center will give you chills) "Judy" and of course the earthshattering "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart." A song he took and completely erased the origin's of.(He even brags about doing this in the liner notes, but hey like he says "It ain't bragging if you did it")The title track is not just a soul classic it is one of the essential landmarks in music history. A song so universal and meaningful, yet wonderfully simple it could be quoted as scripture.(it is in a way actually)The remastering is good but I can't compare it to anything because I don't have a previous edition or a turntable. This has been released in 180-gram audiophile vinyl so if you do have a turntable you probably won't even want to listen to the cd anymore. "Let's Stay Together" is an all time classic and is every bit as essential as any landmark recording made during the 70's and beyond.
P.S. I'm not crazy about the bonus tracks
:o)

Summary: THE NUMBER 1 AL GREEN ALBUM
Comment: Whilst the Al Green selection in most stores consists of three different best of's, nothing beats an orginal album capturing the high point of an artists career. This is the one for Al Green. A beautiful, smooth, soulful piece with a kickass cover. Very cool.

Summary: Remastered ....Not
Comment: Denmon Records from 1986 is the equal, at least, of this sorry edition. Why buy a remaster if you can't tell even a slight increase in quality compared to a version that was released 19 years ago. Even the liner notes are better in the older version.
