Green co‑escreveu “Love and Happiness” com Teenie Hodges, uma parceria que já havia gerado grandes sucessos na década de 1970.
O single foi lançado primeiro no Reino Unido pela London Records em 1973 e, quatro anos depois, nos Estados Unidos pela Hi Records, refletindo a estratégia de lançamento diferenciada típica do cenário disco‑soul da época.
Apesar de não ter sido um hit imediato nos EUA, a canção acabou sendo reconhecida como um dos maiores clássicos do soul, chegando ao #98 da lista das 500 Melhores Músicas de Todos os Tempos da Rolling Stone e ao #861 da compilação de Dave Marsh “The Heart of Rock & Soul”.
Aclamada por especialistas como “quintessential Al Green” por Stephen McMillian e “o mais perfeito” de Al Green segundo Alan Light em Vibe, a faixa consolidou a reputação de Green como um dos maiores intérpretes do gênero.
“Love and Happiness” foi regravada por artistas de renome como Etta James e Al Jarreau, evidenciando seu apelo intergeracional e a influência duradoura no panorama musical brasileiro e internacional.
