I was on the fence about this post. I know it's over a week old, but that
Al Green set was FYE-ur! That's fire if you can't follow my slang; I should keep it simple, right?
I could really give a hoot about who won since many of the winners were not present anyway, but the performances were ... interesting.
Since I've mentioned
Al Green, I will focus on that. His musical tribute began w/
Jill Scott; followed by
Anthony Hamilton and then
Maxwell. I enjoyed Scott and Hamilton, but where the hell did they dig up Maxwell. I absolutely LOVED his performance. He looked fly and sounded even better. Where the hell has he been ...?
Now, since the Rev. Al has taken that title, I expected a gospel set. How pleasantly surprised when he broke out w/his classic! His voice was wonderful; he had a sense of humor and everyone was enjoying his performance.
So check out
this post on OkayPlayer.com with their recap and a clip of the Al Green performance.
