Green seems more than comfortable incorporating his quirks and sound in the pure religious idiom for Higher Plane. That fact makes this an inspired and definitive album from an artist who has his fair share of them.

This LP lives up to its title, suggesting that if Al Green’s meaningful ambiguity is his way of dealing with personal relationships, gospel’s staunch verities are his way of understanding the world.
