  • RIP brother Gil.......we will miss you...

  • This is just wishful thinking but one of the rap groups should redo this inspirational song for the young brothas'...to ensure their survival and thereby helping our people to survive as well. Thanks for the time u spent posting this!

  • @Liyatastic95 I rather not have a rap group redo it because that will just mess the music up ...

  • I grew up with this...thank you

  • No problem....

    Word, people have no clue about the great musical tastes of real hip hop heads! :)

  • @Liyatastic95 Unfortunately, some people are close minded, which is terrible seeing as Gil is and was such an inspiration to us hip hop fans. I'm gonna make a rendition of this and I will send it to you.

  • R.I.P-GODFATHER of RAP-

  • RIP beautiful spirit.

  • LOVE this song on this album. Brian & Gil just KNOW KNOW KNOW how to make fantastic music together. See, this is one person who may not have the voice for opera or gospel, but who's soul, style, creativity surpasses that expectation. Almost all my other inspirations are like that too (Shuggie Otis, Fela Kuti to name a few.)

    Gil WE LOVE YOU. Can't wait 'til my hero's new album comes out! (In February!!! I believe it'll be called "I'm New Here".)

  • I used to have that LP. My favorite. Deep water, I used to mellow with some Bo and a glass of E & J. Those were the days. thanx for posting.

  • 2 months later listenin to this jam, thanks for uploading it!!

  • Glad you like it...

  • I hear you...Also very few "want" to understand

  • my favorite gil scott piece ever.

  • Very few comments cuz very few understand....

  • No problem...I'm glad you enjoy it...

  • So glad you posted this song

  • That's Brian Jackson on piano , he also plays a pretty nice flute...
