Listen in this week as we join Dan and legendary musician, composer, and producer Brian Jackson.
Jackson gained fame in the 1970s as a collaborator with Gil Scott-Heron, creating ten socially conscious albums over the course of a decade including "Winter in America" and "The First Minute of a New Day." Jackson would go on to work with other artists Earth, Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder and Gwen Guthrie. His contributions to the world of jazz, soul and funk have made him a legend in the industry.
In this episode, Brian takes us through his childhood in the culture cradle of Brooklyn, being raised in a racially segregated system and how he found a political and creative comrade in Gil Scott Heron.
