Gets Next to You, Al Green's 1971 album, is where the Memphis soul man found the groove that would carry him through the early '70s. Willie Mitchell produced, part of the long partnership that brought Green his biggest successes, and the sound is already sly and simmering: a tight, low-slung rhythm section and that voice gliding from a murmur to a plea.
"Tired of Being Alone" is here, one of the string of early-'70s soul hits he is best remembered for.
