GIL SCOTT-HERON – Moving Target CD

GIL SCOTT-HERON – Moving Target

1982's Moving Target is known as a "Top 10" essential Gil Scott-Heron release. Scott-Heron and his Midnight Band recorded their most furious hard-funk-driven release influenced by reggae (there are echoes of Bob Marley in some songs). The final song "Black History/The World", is in part a spoken-word performance by Scott-Heron ending with a "plea for peace and world change.”

This polycarbonate “vinyl look-a-like” CD is red on both sides, with a groove vinyl design and a “record label” on the front that will play in any CD player. The sound includes high-res remastering. The packaging includes a cardboard jacket, printed inner sleeve insert and an OBI side spine.
