Just interesting to see him go from cocky revolutionary to whithered old regretful man.

Well, considering that I left my 62nd birthday in the dust several years ago, as well as the fact that I am not yet withered or even very gray yet.
And the only drugs that I have embraced are caffeine, alcohol and ganja, (nicotine in the form of fine, premium cigars only).
But of course this is all simply a pretext for the posting of my single favorite Gil Scott Heron
track.
