Gil Scott-Heron - Pieces of a Man - LP - BGP
Gil Scott-Heron - Pieces of a Man - LP - BGP
Gil Scott-Heron's "Pieces Of A Man" is one of the most important albums in the history of black American music. Although it didn't set the charts alight, it stands as a masterpiece alongside contemporary works such as Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On", Curtis Mayfield's debut LP, Funkadelic's "Maggot Brain" and Isaac Hayes' "Shaft". All were brilliant in their way, but lyrically Scott-Heron was on a different level from almost every other writer. It was a landmark album with it's bold, poetic lyrical content allied to progressive and melodic music, and it saw producer Bob Thiele help Gil and his musical partner Brian Jackson paint the picture they needed to get their message across. Thiele put Gil and Brian together with Ron Carter, Hubert Laws and Bernard Purdie, giving them the musical heft they wanted.
