Blues, Jazz & Soul Poetry
After falling in love with the music of Gil Scott-Heron, I immersed and engrossed in his lyrics and my passion for his melodies was magnified by Gil’s striking and touching lyrics.
More than anybody else he is the one who woke up my social conscience about the African-American political situation.
Gil would become a leading light for me to dig into history and get a better understanding and knowledge of the African-American situation.
