	Amazon.com: Music: Winter in America
		This was the first CD I bought by Gil Scott Heron and it prompted me to get all the CD's of his that are still in print and search for copies of those that aren't.
		Although Gil Scott Heron was known for playing a Fender Rhodes, I don't feel like this makes his work here sound dated.
		Heron's music can be shocking, but it forces you think.

	Hear/Say: America's College Music Magazine - Features - Articles - Gil Scott-Heron
		It's Your World, originally released in 1976, is a Gil Scott-Heron live recording.
		Truly, one of the champion artistic spokesmen of the times, Heron's bassy, gravel-voiced blues style awakened underclass blacks to their political landscape, while evoking the challenges facing black men and women as they strove to survive with one another.
		A griot in the truest sense of the word, whose message must be transmitted from generation to generation in the same way in which my mentor revealed Heron's work to me. There are few artists who emit this type of importance to their own culture and beyond.

		Jazz and R&B-infused street poet Gil Scott-Heron is considered to be one of the godfathers of rap but while his impressive baritone adds weight to his often politically charged poems, he's also able to kick in with a robust, Lou Rawls-style singing voice.
		Heron's early albums with Brian Jackson were Jazz-Funk affairs that had a greater connection to the radical FM rock of the early 1970s than to most R&B of the day.

	Amazon.ca: Music: Easy Listening 4 Armageddon [Import]
		Mike is obviously looking the stretch the boundaries of rap, by making something of substance and forward thinking, much in the same way as 'Gil Scott Heron' did in the the 70's.
		But Ladd remembers something else that many would-be poets who followed Scott-Heron have forgotten: as compelling and evocative as his words can be, it's the music that gives them their staying power.
		Ladd makes comparison with Scott-Heron sensible in large part due to his lyrics, which don't forget the humor ("I'm Building a Bodacious Bodega for the Race War") even as they tackle serious aspects of racism and politics.

		He toured sporadically -- including a 1987 U.S. jaunt with Gil Scott-Heron, whom the poet calls "a brother that I identified with, and with whom I found real mutual respect" -- and put out a few albums, but he concentrated mainly on England's sociopolitical environment, until the early '90s.
		Soon after hearing African-American musical bards the Last Poets and Gil Scott-Heron and the grooved-out chats of reggae MCs Big Youth and U-Roy, Johnson began performing his work with the drumming group Rasta Love.
		Despite his short stature, the poet cuts a somber, formidable figure, in his trademark natty suit and tie, with a serious face framed by spectacles and a fedora.

		The group's self-titled debut album is packed with ten dubwise tracks that will give goose bumps to fans of old school roots dub as well as the active Adrian Sherwood sound.
