Gil Scott-Heron - Nothing New (XL Recordings)

Such a great gift coming from the XL Recordings crew, who will release some precious recordings from Gil Scott-Heron for the 2014 disquaire day, on April 19th.

Recorded in 2008 in Ny, it gathers previously unreleased versions of some of his greatest songs. Judging by the first extract, a moving version of Alien (Hold On To Your Dreams), this limited edition pack should be an easy sell.
