CD Reviews

No need for this one...
Adam J. Matza | South Florida | 09/30/2008
(1 out of 5 stars)

"The 2-disc set called "The Best of Gil Scott-Heron Live" contains the full length cuts that this one edits. It also includes the incredible 23 minute version of "Angel Dust." This disc is superfluous."
