Friday: Gil Scott-Heron on Art Waves

This Friday, June 3rd: 9:00-10:00 p.m., the WKCR Arts Department will air spoken word recordings from Gil Scott-Heron’s debut album Small Talk at 125th and Lenox, in memorial of the late musician and poet. Scott-Heron's work is widely considered an essential precursor to hip hop and to later spoken word and slam poetry movements. This show will focus on readings which feature musical accompaniment.
