This performance from 2001 at the New Morning in Paris showcases one of the greatest singers in the soul tradition, Gil Scott-Heron. He tried his hand at the keyboard in rock groups. His music and lyrics, part poetic, part political, soon made him the cult hero of the radical rap and hip-hop musicians throughout the world. This DVD is a fine example of the rebellious storyteller's ability.
