Just heard. RIP. I saw him a few times in the late 80s early 90s. You'd get stoned just from sitting close to the stage!

I'm very disappointed in our forum's music fans for not picking up on the death of this true legend of American music. Gil Scott-Heron, the grandfather and the godfather of Rap...
