The three albums that Gil Scott-Heron recorded for Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman label are among the most important in black music history. They showed a multi-talented artist coming to full fruition with his first efforts on wax. The Revolution Begins contains every piece of music he released for the label from 1970-1971. In recent years Gil has become a lauded as one of the all-time greats. This music is the reason why. It includes classic performances, including both the spoken word and band versions of 'The Revolution Will Not Be Televised', 'Home Is Where the Hatred Is', 'Lady Day and John Coltrane', 'Pieces of a Man', 'Whitey on the Moon' and 'Free Will' Taken from the original master tapes, the sound quality on this release trumps all previous reissues. The bonus material includes an alternate version of Gil's third album 'Free Will' and the previously un-reissued 'Artificialness', which Gil recorded with Bernard Purdie on his \"Stand By Me\" album. The in-depth sleeve notes contain previously unpublished interview material from both Gil and his songwriting partner Brian Jackson.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLady Day and John Coltrane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome Is Where the Hatred Is\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSave the Children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Revolution Will Not Be Televised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDid You Hear What They Said?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePieces of a Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeed Kills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEveryday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Think I'll Call It Morning 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen You Are Who You Are 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree Will 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOr Down You Fall 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Needle's Eye 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Middle of Your Day 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Sign of the Ages 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho'll Pay Reparations on My Soul? 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction \/ the Revolution Will Not Be Televised 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhitey on the Moon 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Knock 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall Talk at 125th ; Lenox 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBilly Green Is Dead 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSex Education: Ghetto Style 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Vulture 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Prisoner 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e...
