It's not for everyone I imagine. It follows no trends, makes no allowances for the media and manages to be cover a lot of ground in its 28 minutes. Mind you Gil Scott Heron has always been like that.

They are all in their 70s – except the ones in their 80s. And they are all wearing hats. The 84-year-old Egbert Watson hunches over a banjo; Joseph "Powda" Bennett, 73, clasps a pair of maracas; Derrick "Johnny" Henry, 71, rests on a rumba box; while Allan Swymmer, 82, hits the bongo. They all watch the last man, 72-year-old Albert Minott, who is seated in front of them, dressed in pale slacks, a bright orange shirt and a tweed fedora and cradling an acoustic guitar. He has a thin face and when he sings we hear a dark, gravelly rumble of a voice and see more gaps than teeth – a reminder of his years as a fire-eater.
