Профиль:
Singer, spoken-word, activist and author of Jamaican descent
Born: April 1, 1949 (Chicago, IL, USA)
Died: May 27, 2011 (New York, NY, USA)
American poet, musician, and author known primarily for his late 1960s and early 1970s work as a spoken word soul performer and his collaborative work with musician Brian Jackson. His collaborative efforts with Jackson featured a musical fusion of jazz, blues and soul music, as well as lyrical content concerning social and political issues of the time, delivered in both rapping and melismatic vocal styles by Scott-Heron. The music of these albums, most notably Pieces of a Man and Winter in America in the early 1970s, influenced and helped engender later African-American music genres such as hip hop and neo soul. Scott-Heron’s recording work is often associated with black militant activism and has received much critical acclaim for one of his most well-known compositions “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised”. On his influence, Allmusic wrote “Scott-Heron’s unique proto-rap style influenced a generation of hip-hop artists”.

I only discovered Gil upon the release of his last album.i was blown away,but more recently I picked up the album 'nothing new' on vinyl which had a DVD called 'who is Gil Scott-Heron?' I must have watched this film 50 times or more,it's so inspiring....
'if you could help someone,why wouldn't you'
Why indeed.in these troubled times I feel the tide is turning to embrace this mantra,or at least I hope it is.

I have managed to gather all of Gil - Scott Heron's work. Cd's, Vinyl, and tapes. Minus a few of the compiled work, I wasn't interested in buying the same tracks over and over. But, I can say yes I do own all of his work. Excelled, without praising this man taught us all how to make a difference. There were many others of this message, caliber, skill, and, concentration. Gil - Scott Heron is by far a leading vessel in musicianship. A pure Scholar, one of my very first impressions of Jazz music was through his Funk and Soul.

Gil Scott-Heron is a poet come musical artist come political activist come founding father of socially conscious Hip Hop. His music encompassess Soul, Jazz, Blues, R N'B.... His lyrical vision is incredibly powerful and poignant. The guy does not get the plaudits or the column inches as the Marvin Gaye's, Stevie Wonders, Al Greens, Curtis Mayfields or Aretha Franklins - all great legendary artists but his phenomenal musical legacy is equally up there with all these names I have mentioned. His most famous song 'The Bottle' rocked clubs such as The Paradise Garage and The Loft back in the day and continues to light up discerning dancefloors today. Check any of his albums from the 70s right thru to the mid-late 80s and you will find some of the greatest pieces of radical Black music of the last century. LEGEND - & THE ULTIMATE RESPECT IS DUE.
