Gil Scott-Heron. New Album

[Cunnie]

Just copied the below quote from Gil Scott-Herons webpage that promotes his new album that was released today.

To do as the man says click on the link at the bottom of this post & listen to the entire album. Just scroll down on the link to the box that looks like a flier & hit play all.

A few strange tracks to say the least but well worth a listen for 'I'll Take Care Of You'.

Be forewarned though, The Bottle it ain't, well not musically but it probably is lyriclally.

There is a proper procedure for taking advantage of any investment.

Music, for example. Buying a CD is an investment.

To get the maximum you must

LISTEN TO IT FOR THE FIRST TIME UNDER OPTIMUM CONDITIONS.

Not in your car or on a portable player through a headset.

Take it home.

Get rid of all distractions, (even him or her).

Turn off your cell phone.

Turn off everything that rings or beeps or rattles or whistles.

Make yourself comfortable.

Play your CD.

LISTEN all the way through.

Think about what you got.

Think about who would appreciate this investment.

Decide if there is someone to share this with.

Turn it on again.

Enjoy Yourself.

Now that is the way to promote your album , and possibly the way for other producers to consider in order to get the public to buy their product .

Thanks for that cunnie.

I saw the video for the single (can't remember the name), and wasn't too thrilled about it, but definitely going to preview the album...

PS Listening to the first track now. Triphoppy.

Edit: actually, first track is a poem over a sample of Kanye West's Flashing lights. Nice.

Great advice - I bought this today but haven't listened to it yet.

I shall seek out those optimum conditions over the weekend and let you know how I got on!

It wouldn't be too diifficult. Acording to mi iTunes is only 28 minutes long.
