Gil Scott Heron dead at 62
« on: June 02, 2011, 03:44:52 PM »
Gil Scott Heron a product of the turbulent 60s in America died on May 27. Black awareness and a head on attack against racism was not the full thrust of his music however. He took on politics, corporate greed, the nuclear industry, medical ethics, parenthood, and more.. He led a very troubled life and battled drug addiction for years but he was an extremely prolific songwriter and an astute observer of the times.
