Default Goodbye Gil

RIP Gil Scott-Heron

Incredible talent. Changed music. Some links, in case you [think you] don't know him.

NP, man.

I know a bit about music, but every day I learn more. Sometimes a little late...but I do remember him from when I was a kid, especially his hit; "The Bottle". Turns out, he influenced many, many people, and contributed a great deal to modern music. More than I had imagined. Very humble man, too. Seemed like such a gentle soul...and such an amazing poet...
