August 19, 1972 –
One of Al Green’s most popular releases, I’m Still in Love with You, spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Charts, starting on this date. It would eventually go on to sell over one million copies.
Rev. Al Green remembered the I’m Still in Love with You album cover in his 2000 autobiography, Take Me to the River: “In my white turtleneck, white patent leather shoes with the stacked heels and just a touch of diamond and gold, I was as cool and in control as the music between that cover.”
