Ok inspired by SA I'm becoming a blogger. Trouble is where to start.You can't start at the beginning - you'll never get to the end. I'll start with my favourite album of the moment.
After spending too much time in prison Gil Scott-Heron is back with an extraordinary album. I implore you to buy this album. I'm New Here is a real album as well, don't just download the odd track - listen to it all.
Gil Scott-Heron has always been there for me. Simmering away in the background. He was the one who told me the 'Revolution would not be televised', he was right. He was the one who said I'd be living in a 'Bottle'; He knew all along. He is the link between the artists who will appear in this blog, he is the link between the Beats, the rappers, the Ranters and the Ravers. He's the link between the Avant-garde(ers), the Jazzers, the leftfield indie kids, the cut-ups and samplers and the proggers. He links Burroughs to Public Enemy and The Beasties to Beasley Street.
Top stuff H.
