Green with Envy

The 62-year-old resurfaced at a Chicago concert recently, looking shady.
Al Green

In 1974, Green's girlfriend doused him with a pan of boiling hot grits while he was showering causing third-degree burns on Green's back, stomach and arms. She then shot and killed herself with Al's gun. He subsequently became a pastor at the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Memphis.

Green released a new album in May, which contains tracks with John Legend and Corinne Bailey Rae.

18. He wasn't accused of anything because his skin was burning off when she shot herself. The other women in the house, who was helping him at the time also wasn't accused of anything because the women (Mary Woodson) shot herself while the ambulance was on the way. Why don't you research a little before you go accusing someone of murder. BTW he still leaves an empty seat for Mary when he is preaching.
