It's too bad that Gil Scott Heron didn't get to sing "The Bottle" on Saturday Night Live. It was the song he was most famous for. That song would have been awesome for that show. He will be missed.
A great Gil Scott Heron song - RIP. I remember watching this one. I was hoping to find it complete also. For some reason I remember the guy with the shekere (gourd) tossing it up in the air while he was playing it.
I had this on tape several years ago...He did 2 songs, this one & another one....Do you or anybody know the name of the other song? It was beautiful & I been searching for it forever
I was watching that SNL broadcast! Rest Peacefully messenger!
