GIL SCOTT-HERON Pieces Of A Man (50th Anniversary UK/EU limited edition 11-track double album 2-LP cut all-analogue by Frank Merritt at The Carvery, London, and pressed on 180-gram black vinyl. Widely regarded as one of the mostinfluential albums in the history of black American music, Pieces Of A Man captures Gil Scott-Heron at his most incisive and poetic. Originally released in 1971, this special anniversary edition presents the album with extraordinary fidelity, cut all-analogue from the original master tapes. Cut at 45RPM across two LPs, this edition allows every note of Gil's collaboration with Brian Jackson and producer Bob Thiele to shine - from the urgency of The Revolution Will Not Be Televised to the aching beauty of Home Is Where The Hatred Is and Lady Day And John Coltrane. Featuring contributions from Ron Carter, Hubert Laws, and Bernard Purdie, the album stands as a timeless fusion of jazz, soul, and spoken word, housed in a faithfully reproduced gatefold picture sleeve. Hype sticker & factory sealed. Essential).
