Here is some info about Al Green’s most recent work getting back into the R&B scene from Wikipedia:

After spending several years exclusively performing gospel, Green began to return to R&B. First, he released a duet with Annie Lennox, “Put A Little Love In Your Heart” for Scrooged, a Bill Murray film. In 1989 Green workedwith producer Arthur Baker writing and producing the international hit “The Message Is Love”. His 1994 duet with country music singer Lyle Lovett blended country with R&B, garnering him his ninth Grammy, this time in a pop music category. Green’s first secular album in some time was Your Heart’s In Good Hands (1995), released to positive reviews but disappointing sales, the same year Green was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

In 2000, Green published Take Me to the River, a book discussing his career. Green received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002.

By 2003 Green released a non-religious (secular) album entitled I Can’t Stop, his first collaboration with Willie Mitchell since 1985’s He is the Light. Then in March 2005 he issued Everything’s Ok, as the follow up to I Can’t Stop. Green also collaborated with Mitchell on this secular CD.

In 2004, Green was inducted into the Gospel Music Association’s Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Green still continues to tour, and to preach at the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Memphis, Tennessee. Also in 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked him #65 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.[1]

Most recently, Al Green has been in the studio with The Roots’ Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson, working on Green’s next album for Blue Note Records.[2]
