I saw Gil Scott-Heron at Toad's Place in New Haven CT. It would have been in the late 80s (seems like yesterday). He wore a Yale t-shirt that was too small for his tall frame. And he put on an incredible performance. It was an odd time in the country, Reagan was president, and life seemed a lot simpler. Of course, Gil reminded us of how "home is where the hatred is" and that our investment in the cold war was a decision not to take on hunger, poverty, etc. Would love to see him live again! (as I type this I just took a look and see I missed his tour stop in NC) Thanks for this post. I saw Gil Scott-Heron at Toad’s Place in New Haven CT.
