2. Spirit Music

A tribute to Gil Scott Heron. Hot track by Patchworks, the man behind Metropolitan Jazz Affair, The Dynamics, Mr President, Mr day.

Gil Scott Heron has joined Lady Day and John Coltrane in the pantheon of African-American artists. His influence on modern music is claimed by soul and hip-hop artists but also by pop and rock singers as well. Patchworks, the musician and producer behind many excellent funky projects such as Mr President or Mister Day, was also transformed by listening to the poet's soul music. He has dedicated to him two emotional themes that evoke the wonderful compositions of Gil Scot Heron's mid-70s work with Brian Jackson, whom the flute played by Guillaume calls to mind. 'RIP with Lady Day , RIP with John Coltrane'.
