{"product_id":"gil-scott-heron-free-will-cd","title":"Gil Scott-Heron - Free Will (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eDigitally remastered and expanded edition Gil Scott-Heron's 1972 album taken from the original master tapes and featuring alternate takes of all but one of the album tracks as bonus material. The album is special as one side consists of songs - all but one written with Brian Jackson - and the flipside is of poetry. Both forms showcase the political and the personal, in a way where even the time-specific lyrics transcend their era. Gil and Brian are backed an all-star band consisting of Bernard Purdie, Gerry Jemmott, Hubert Laws and David Spinozza. These help bring out the pathos in the achingly sad 'Did You Hear What They Say' - one of Gil's finest pieces of writing.Gil's final album for Flying Dutchman, it capped a hugely creative period for him when he wrote many of his best-remembered songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree Will\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Middle of Your Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Get Out of the Ghetto Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Speed Kills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Did You Hear What They Said?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The King Alfred Plan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e No Knock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wiggy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ain't No New Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Billy Green Is Dead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sex Education: Ghetto Style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e ... and Then He Wrote Meditations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Free Will (Alt Take 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Middle of Your Day (Alt Take 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Get Out of the Ghetto Blues (Alt Ending)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Speed Kills (Alt Take 3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Did You Hear What They Said?
