Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings Free Will is the second studio album by American poet Gil Scott-Heron, released in August 1972 on Flying Dutchman Records. Recordings sessions for the album took place on March 2 and 3, 1972, at RCA Studios in New York City, and production was handled by producer Bob Thiele.[1] It is the follow-up to Scott-Heron's critically acclaimed studio debut, Pieces of a Man (1971), and it is the second album to feature him working with keyboardist Brian Jackson.[2] Free Will is also Scott-Heron's final studio album for Flying Dutchman.[3] The album reissued on compact disc in 2001 by Bluebird Records[1] with alternative takes of eight tracks from the original album.

Music

Free Will featured a format that divides the LP's two sides, musically. The first side is made up of five recordings done by Scott-Heron and the entire band, which once again featured Brian Jackson playing a major role as he did on the previous album, Pieces of a Man.[2] The title track opens up the album with a meditation on personal responsibility. One of Scott-Heron's best known performances, "The Get out of the Ghetto Blues" is a moving ghetto warning and features bluesy instrumentation by pianist Brian Jackson and guitarist David Spinozza.[2] The second side functions more as a live rap session with Brian Jackson on flute and a couple of percussionists.[2] "Ain't No New Thing" emphasizes Scott-Heron's black pride, which he previously displayed on his debut album, by presenting an argument about the placement of black culture into the American mainstream:[4]

Шаблон:Blockquote

"Wiggy" is a haiku-like appreciation of natural black hair.[5] The themes of police brutality, violence, and self-exploration are still present as they were on Scott-Heron's previous albums. "No Knock", a reference to a police policy whereby knocking is not required before entering a house, and "... And Then He Wrote Meditations", a tribute to John Coltrane, continue these themes.[2]
