Gil Scott-Heron - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (LP)

Sealed. Gatefold sleeve.

This compilation of the best of Gil Scott-Heron's Flying Dutchman output was originally released in 1974 and pulled together tracks from his first three albums "Small Talk At 154th And Lennox" (1970), "Pieces Of A Man" (1971) and "Free Will" (1972). Ace first reissued this album on vinyl in the UK in 2017 (BGPD 306) although that version came in a single sleeve with a printed inner. This version restores "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" to it's original Flying Dutchman format in a gatefold sleeve. The music and words - pressed on 180gm vinyl - are as relevant today as they were in the early 1970s.
