1995 studio album by Al Green
Your Heart's in Good Hands is American singer Al Green 's 26th studio album , his first after a several-year hiatus from secular music, released by MCA Records in 1995.[ 1] Described as "a solid project that approaches the Rev. Green's classic work with Hi Records",[ 2] the album was said to capture much of Al Green's early vocal sound, keeping true to his original style but also adding modern elements. "Keep On Pushing Love ", a single released from the album, produced by Arthur Baker and co-written with Lotti Golden , Al Green and Tommy Faragher invokes "the original, sparse sound of his [Green's] early classics."[ 3] "Your Heart's in Good Hands", a single produced by Narada Michael Walden and written by Diane Warren , was also released from the LP.[ 1]
