Gil Scott-Heron & The Midnight Band - Live at Berkeley '78 - Black/Gold LP

Gil Scott-Heron and The Midnight Band live in Berkeley in 1978, on black and gold vinyl.

The poet, singer and self-described "bluesologist" fused jazz, blues and soul with pointed social and political lyrics, much of it alongside Brian Jackson, and his work is widely cited as a major influence on hip-hop. This set captures him on stage with The Midnight Band.
