Very Best Of

Bought this after hearing "the revolution will not be televised" on a TV documentary about rock poets. The rest of this album matches up to the standard of that track , while giving a good overview of Heron's musical vocabulary

Great music - beats and intelligence lyrics - can’t tell if this is more jazz funk or soul but isdedinitelybyheborecirsor of rap but with intelligence and beat not anger.

This is a superb collection featuring GSH's finest work from the early 70's to the late 80's! Revolution, bottle, lady day and h20gate blues. The collection is 80 minutes a pure class from the jazzy pieces of a man to the soulful croon of Blue collar. Underrated and misunderstood this guy could work four genres and be cool,and at home on each one! Legend!

Memories of Ronnie Scott’s , good times

Father of rap - poet - political commentator - well labels don't matter when the basics are so good, I'd forgotten how good these songs are, not just the obvious ones but 'pieces of a man' for example. 'home is where the hatred is' and all the rest. I've bought it three times more for friends. You won't go wrong with this.

Best songs of Mr Gil Scott Heron . . Full of words of wisdom honesty and truth.. Bless you Gil .. 😇..

Gil Scott is a Genius. £6 how can you not buy this collection of classic music ?

This album was a steal. Every track is fantastic and showed the man's genius for wordplay, humour and keen political nous. And the music is greta as well. A fantastic introduction to the man and his genius at an incredible price.
