RIP Gil Scott-Heron


He was a singular talent and a huge influence on many artists who came after him. I was 11 when I first heard The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, and I've dug GSH ever since. Time to dig out the vinyl for a tribute listen.

After reading a profile of him in a New Yorker, I was moved and intrigued. I got his latest CD and have to say it is unlike any other--part music, part commentary. His was a sad case really.
