Gil Scott was always a real musician who suffered for his music. The world has been asleep for too long. Rip Gil, you were fighting to wake the people up. You did. Thank you

It does appear this performance is way above the crowd's appreciation level. GSH is the best.

I miss this man

Heroes never die

Gil Scott-Heron and his music, a precious gift for all.

I always wish I could’ve seen GSH. I was at this very festival for three days or so, but was young, didn’t know GSH, I was partying hard, and have no recollection of whether I saw him or not. 😢. Fast forward about twenty-five years and I’m listening to William DeVaughn “Just Be Thankful” on Thanksgiving Eve and the KZfaq algorithm suggests some GSH songs and the rest is history. The regrets of youth but the gratitude for KZfaq opening my musical horizons to GSH.

They, just didn't know who he really was.maybe they was looking for somewhere to go and they ended up at his concert.he was a genius at his real life story telling about life.this brother is truly amazing and we miss him so much.maybe we will get another Gil Scott heron Lord knows we need more people like him.may God rest his soul Love you Gil Scott heron forever.

Gil Scott Heron was my first love, first crush, first person to educate me about life outside my status quo, teenage bubble. Introduced to his music at 12 or 13. I’m so sorry he’s gone! Thank the good Lord his musical, and spirituality will last forever.

H e is a Beautiful Genius .... Thank you sir

Time to celebrate

Genius the beat goes on ...... his music lives on. Enjoy the music but hear the messages .

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The irony is that GSH succumbed to the bottle. Great artist and writer.

pure énergie ! voilà pourquoi je ne peux vivre sans musique ! je me sens vivante quand j'écoute cette musique venue du plus profond de l'artiste

Gil Scott-Heron. Rest in peace, in the heaven of the hip

Gil Scott Heron is someone whose music you just scratch the surface of in discovering you'll reap great rewards if you just scratch a little more.

Love this mans spirit. RIH . Within Gil's poetic genius, at the time I was exposed to his music at the sweet age of 20 or so; I had no idea the addiction he sung about, was part of his life. (The Bottle, Angel Dust, etc)

REST IN PERFECT LOVE AND PEACE ! ! ! LUV U, TOO !

This crowd doesn't even know who Gil Scott Heron is. Such a shame.

Amazing

I was there dude...what a few days that was..

💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽😘😘💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽😘😘💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽👠👠👠👠👠👠💜💜💜💜💜💜 this man voice doesn't change when he sings

Those "unaware" people supported GSH ability to bring his message. Keep it real.

that man on the electric tho...whew

Excellent video!!!💯✅👏🏼

Thanks so much

L crowd they were witnessing a legend

Fun fact about GSH - his father was a professional football (soccer) player who became the first black player to sign for Scottish giants Celtic, in the 1950's.

it is great that he wore stripes it is ????? I wish i was there cos i love him Bye from Perth Western Australia

Does this crowd even know who GSH is/was? They seem clueless.

They didnt play this anywhere mesr Steve Winwood Traffic perfornance did they? Oh no they obviously didn't cuz life still sucks that's right...love you Gil and Steve Winwood too

Love it!

Does anyone know the name of the guitarist? All crew members are on fire. It appears that the guitarist is playing a right-handed guitar as a left-handed one like Jimi...except that the strings are still the "wrong" way. It's as if the dude just picked a right handed guitar and played it immediately out of the blue. Rip GSH.

2022(sans toujours Actuel je kiffv i luke 👍❤❤💚❤🌈

Damn! Mozzy on the bass lol

👍 great

We have to remember during this time, we're still in the thick of the grunge era. So the response is typical. A little more adult contemporary than what the masses can get into... But I can appreciate some of them trying. 😀🤘

ギル・スコット・ヘロン！！

Do they not know who they are witnessing

GSH was genius. Had the pleasure of seeing him live a few times over the years. Saw him perform at concerts by the sea in Hermosa Beach. Sadly, Gil was drunk or high and very rude to the audience. How unfortunate that he slipped in and out of substance abuse. He was genius.

It’s the reincarnation of Jimi on guitar

extraordinaire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..................................................................................

dont understand why these mockers would be highlighted at 3:17! This song is by an exemplary artist singing about a serious issue. It's not a joke.

Who is on guitar? Very good.

I don’t blame the crowd they were there to see some Limp Biscuit

Remember Brian Jackson and the midnight band,,,Also Bilal Sunni Ali

Is this councilman Eric Mays from Flint, Michigan?

This is unbelievable , I love GSH's music but who is the base player?

Are you getting paid for this one too

What was all that rubbish at the beginning? GSH looks emaciated here. Not a bad performance. The crowd are awful though.

wheres the song ???

Be a proper human being..... not a waxwork, nor an OJ Simpson cloned fraudster.....
