Reception
The Allmusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 3 stars and stated "Green Is Beautiful finds the guitarist growing more comfortable with harder, funkier R&B than he seemed on the softer-hued Carryin' On... Green Is Beautiful proves that Green's reinvention as a jazz-funk artist wasn't the misguided disaster it was initially made out to be".[2]

gollark: What configuration did you try, then?
gollark: Unless you have other stuff on the machine which depends on apache being there, *somehow*.
gollark: Surely it's just `sudo [package manager] [install or whatever] nginx`, edit the configuration files, disable apache service, enable nginx service, that's it?
gollark: If you are *not* using LE, you probably should be.
gollark: I have no idea *what* kind of setup could somehow make it impossible to install nginx, but there are certbot plugins for it and Apache for LetsEncrypt automation, and caddy has it builtin.
