Reviews

Rolling Stone (1/23/97, p.63) - 5 Stars (out of 5) - "...the four discs of this expertly programmed box set deliver the obvious hits. But that's only the beginning....ANTHOLOGY works as an audio biography and actually makes sense of one of the most mercurial performers in pop history..."

Entertainment Weekly (2/14/97, p.63) - "...a much more three-dimensional portrait of a superstar than you usually get from a boxed set." - Rating: A

Vibe (6-7/97, p.162) - "...an aural documentary of Green's career as a soul singer....More illuminating than comprehensive, ANTHOLOGY is a loving, detailed portrait of an incomparable voice."

Musician (6/97, p.88) - "...It's interesting and amusing to hear him manipulate the now-famous voice through all kinds of stylistic contortions....there's almost no way to go wrong with an Al Green anthology. Arguably the finest and most enduring male singer in R&B..."
