This edition celebrates the legacy of Gil Scott-Heron —poet, musician, and chronicler of the human condition. It is a reissue of The Revolution Begins: The Flying Dutchman Masters (1992), an anthology that brings together the three albums Scott-Heron recorded for the Flying Dutchman label, totaling 51 tracks.
THE REVOLUTION BEGINS takes on a physical format that emphasizes the material presence of word and sound: a bundle of three LPs — accompanied by a book of poetry and three posters evocative of the artist’s revolutionary spirit. It is further supported by a website that invites deep engagement with his body of work.
