The most exciting release this week...well I think its this week, apologies if I got that wrong... anyhow, this was only ever on the LP, so very happy to get 'Gil Scott-Heron - When You Are Who You Are' on a 7"...

 

You can get it from Ace Records...

I wonder why they say it's the first ever release on a 45.

Posted same time as you jocko.

I wonder why they say it's the first ever release on a 45.

 

Because it's an alt take.

According to the above link its Free Will thats the alt take, it says the top side is the original from the LP. so I suppose the question is the 45 version different from the LP.

 

Although its all incidental, just buy it, and more importantly buy the triple CD it comes from if you want to hear sheer genuis in the making.
