Грин ЭЛ (Green Al) (р. 13 апреля 1946, Форест-Сити, Арканзас), американский госпел- и соул-певец. Получил музыкальную подготовку в GREEN BROTHERS (братский евангелистский квартет). Свои первые записи сделал в 1960. Четыре года спустя он помог сформировать CREATIONS с Кертисом Роджерсом и Палмером Джонсом. Затем он создает новую группу AL GREEN AND THE SOUL MATES, для которой Роджерс и Джонс написали и поставили балладу, ставшую хитом 1967. В 1969 Эл начинает сольную карьеру. Несколько жизненных неудач заставили Грина отойти от блюз-джаза и отдать предпочтение духовным песням.
