Recieved the Dyson speech; thanks much Lon; very kind of you.
Why do the Last Poets seek to distance themselves from Gil-Scott Heron?
Many of their lyrics are interchangeable; since they appear at the same time period it seems to be a puzzle.
Can you extropolate the meaning of a movement from the perspective of history? I know definately in terms of music which is the reason for this forum that the importance and effect of music on our day to day is nowhere near what it was in the late 60's and 70's. It had a different meaning then than it does now.
Read Damir's musical commentaries and you can see what I mean; the importance music heald to him and his contemporaries over there as a soundtrack to change.
What do you think of Kerouac?
