A compilation of Gil Scott-Heron's best-known works for the Flying Dutchman label on CD and LP. Originally released to capitalise on the success of Scott-Heron's then-current hit The Bottle and his subsequent signing to Arista, this 1974 compilation has since become the definitive distillation of his early work.
