      Gil Scott-Heron's "Pieces Of A Man" is one of the most            ██░
      important albums in the history of black American music.          ██
      Although it didn't set the charts alight, it stands as a          ██
      masterpiece alongside contemporary works such as Marvin           ██
      Gaye's "What's Going On", Curtis Mayfield's debut LP,             ██
      Funkadelic's "Maggot Brain" and Isaac Hayes' "Shaft". All         ██
      were brilliant in their way, but lyrically Scott-Heron was        ██
      on a different level from almost every other writer. "Pieces      ██
      Of A Man" was contemporary music performed by great jazz          ██
      players, directed and prompted by Scott-Heron and his             ██
      collaborator Brian Jackson, who at the time was not yet 20        ██
      years old.                                                        ██
                                                                        ██
      Scott-Heron had came to the attention of Flying Dutchman          ██
      label owner Bob Thiele via World Books, the publisher of his      ██
      first novel, The Vulture, and a small book of his poetry,         ██
      Small Talk At 125th And Lenox. He wanted to record an album       ██
      of music but Thiele could only afford to use percussion and       ██
      spoken word. They titled the record after Scott-Heron's book      ██
      of poetry. One track in particular, "The Revolution Will Not      ██
      Be Televised", caught the zeitgeist, and the album sold well      ██
      enough for Thiele to put Scott-Heron and Jackson back in the      ██
      studio with a full band.                                          ██
                                                                        ██
      The resultant second album, "Pieces Of A Man", containing a       ██
      new version of "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised",            ██
      pushed Scott-Heron's words to a far wider audience, and the       ██
      song title became a catchphrase, an aphorism for political        ██
      involvement. It was followed by "Save The Children", "Lady        ██
      Day And John Coltrane" and "Home Is Where The Hatred Is".         ██
      These four songs became the bedrock of Scott-Heron's career,      ██
      with "Home Is Where The Hatred Is" being covered by Esther        ██
      Phillips on her LP "From A Whisper To A Scream".                  ██
                                                                        ██
      "Pieces Of A Man" has no weak spots. Scott-Heron's lyrics         ██
      never shy away from the political but are far from polemic.       ██
      Instead they focus on the harsh realities of life. The title      ██
      track, one of the most effective, looks at the uncaring           ██
      nature of the workplace and the lack of value it puts on an       ██
      individual. The story is developed with the brevity of great      ██
      poetry, and long before it ends the listener is engrossed in      ██
      its horror. It's not all downbeat; "I Think I'll Call It          ██
      Morning" rejoices in the need to face up to life, and how it      ██
      can be worth it.                                                  ██
                                                                        ██
      The CD version features three bonus titles from Black &           ██
      Blues, Scott-Heron's college group, recorded at a short           ██
      session and promptly forgotten. "Toast To The People"             ██
      debuted on our "Liberation Music" comp in 2013. The other         ██
      two tracks make their first appearance here.                      ██
