Review

Remastered reissue combines the rap pioneers' first two albums, 'Last Poets' (1970) & 'This Is Madness' (1971). Rev-Ola. 2005.The Time was Tight in a Frantic Time When Revolution, Brothers and Sisters, Seemed Just around the Next Corner, Things were Escalating, Politics Seemed Passé, Direct Action was the Way, but to Take Action, One Had to Be Aware and have Self Respect and Knowledge. Into this Came a Unique Group, who Taking Willie Kgositsile's Cue, Became the Last Poets, Men Who'd Lived all the Stuff the Braggers Brag About, Yes, and Had the Jail Time and Whatnot to Show for It, and were Not Impressed with Themselves and Others. No, it was Time to Stand Up, their Apocalyptic Tones Tore Through the Movie "Performance", and Certainly Dispelled Any Lingering Ideas Gil Scott Heron May have Had About Letting Go Poetry and Following his Father as a Star of Celtic. Seen Nowadays as "Fathers of Rap", They were to Echo on to Inspire Public Enemy and Nwa, They Can also Be Seen as the Antithesis of What Rap Became as They Deconstruct with Relentless Pitiless Poetry Every Self Serving Dream You Or I Or them Ever Had.
