Black Box #64 | Tribute to Gil Scott-Heron

This episode is no longer available

Black Box #64 – This time round we pay tribute to the late great Gil Scott-Heron in the only way that will do him justice – playing his own music. We also check out a chunk of Jazz and electronic stuff that is well worth checking out. How apt that this show should be the number as the years in his life. I found it hard to write about him in a way that would do him justice… so perhaps this will be my way of seeing him off. Hope you enjoy.
