The Prodigal Son is the second posthumous release by American contemporary Christian music pianist and singer Keith Green. His widow Melody Green assembled it from unreleased material and released it in 1983.
The album features one of his most notable songs, "The Prodigal Son Suite", originally written by Green in hopes of completing a full rock opera based on Biblical stories and parables. Another component of that project -- "On the Road to Jericho", telling the story of the Good Samaritan—was released on Green's final posthumous album, Jesus Commands Us to Go!.
