  2. polycera says:

    Dig that Alembic bass.

  3. PoetryMan11 says:

    SocaSeven this is so fantastict but where is the ending? Where Gil says “ain’t really a life, ain’t really a life, ain’t really, ain’t nothing but a movie” This is really the punch line for the whole song/poem!

    Will you please repost this great live performance in its entirety? Thanks!

    Way better then Obama!

  5. DrPeterBeter says:

    George Bush talked about Reagan’s Voodoo Economics back in 1979 when Bush was competing for the republicrat nomination.

    It took me about 6 minutes to realize this wasn’t stand up comedy, hilarious nonetheless

    thanks for posting!
    Heron is a great poet– and sadly one of the last.

  9. hubristime says:

    Agreed, except I don’t think John was a thief.

  10. jbeezz says:

    You could insert W or any presidents name that came after RayGun and it would still be just as relevant. I think that we have our John Wayne now though.

  12. sooz62350 says:

    I know. Years ago, he was brilliant, funny, and so underappreciated. It’s the ultimate sad irony that the gifted man who wrote something as perceptive as The Bottle, succumbed to drug addiction himself to the point that it really destroyed his life.

  13. mrjlthomas says:

    i had absolutely no idea what has happened to Gil Scott….i wonder what happened, i felt terrible when i started doing research about what happened to Gil Scott..and to hear he is HIV positive….i am stunned

  14. sooz62350 says:

    I think he’s been too messed up with his own problems. Actually it’s quite tragic.

  15. mrjlthomas says:

    i wonder why Gil Scott didn’t hit ole George W

  16. Inferno41 says:

    Wuz up Tos???????

  19. 287750 says:

    This is stronger than anything, anywhere. You need to really listen and understand what you are hearing. This is not an academic journal or doctoral dissertation. This is the truth explained in everyday language.

  20. meikosma says:

    Sometimes it takes a clear coherent mind to understand the meaning of the words of a true poet. The confusion may be in the ear of the beholder.

  21. showtime3700 says:

    Aint really ya life… Aint nutta but a movie… I yearn for the day when we pull our pants up & become men again! Knowledge… Scholarz… Warriorz!!!
    Brothaz gonna work it out!!!
    Peace Brotha Gil

  22. jsoderba says:

    George Bush called Reagan’s economic plan “voodoo economics” when they were competing in the 1980 Republican primaries.

  23. Spewns says:

    This is as coherent as it gets. Go to school?

  24. schnotzarella says:

    OMG he says “Voodoo Economics” by George “Papa Doc” Bush @ 6:29 — how did he know?
