love this joint so much, ran across it by accident on tidal a while back, couldnt find it on youtube, thanks 4 uploading it. been in constant rotation since i heard it. hidden gem.
I first heard GSH's voice in 1972 as a freshman in college and ran to the radio station to find out whose voice it was. For me, he was the greatest from '1971-80.
Im watching a RedBull Music Acedemy interview with Brian Jackson rn. Its called 'Brian Jackson on Writing Music With Gil Scott-Heron. Around 17 minutes in he says that this song (where can a man find) ''peace'' is the first thing Gil played for Brian Jackson if Im correct.
What comes up So many many times Seems I hear it Every day You know it's always On my mind As I struggle To find my way But I can't remember Half the pain Things To set my mind at ease 'Cause I know We're out here Just searching Struggling, struggling As I am for peace Echoes, echoes Of another world This world of ours Always torn by wars And it makes you Sit down ask yourself Just what am I Living for And in the darkness Of the dawn I get down on My knees Asking the heavens Up above me Where can a man Find peace I want to know Is it a dark for lying somewhere operation Or my brothers Losing their lives in the streets Or in the shelter Of my woman's arms Want to know where Where can a man find peace It seems that thunder Rules my life Every day, every day And every sleepless night And I say tell me Can anybody tell me please Which way Is the road to peace I want to know Where can a man find peace Tell me where, where Where can a man find peace Tell me which way which way Is the road to peace
No; Brian Jackson and Gil are singing on “Who’ll Pay Reparations...”; this vocalist is Victor Brown. He’s featured on a lot of Gil & Brian’s earlier work (Must Be Something, Beginnings, A Toast to the People, Sharing, Offering, etc.)

One of the greater recordings humanity will share for an eternity.
I agree , can't think of anything better to listen to than this apart from other Gil Scott Heron music
Banger song❤ I feel like I'd get along with everyone else who appreciates this song
I always figure my grandma getting herself and the kids ready for church on a hot summers sunday listening to this song.
Beautiful image of a scene
I just heard that "Black and Blues" is the name of Gil's college band. Victor Brown is singing. That's all I've got
TJ Siegal Victor Brown's voice is amazing and never discussed in Gil's career.
I think that’s Gil on the harmonies at the very end. Love this song
@@gaelb7813 I stay playing this song. I think John Legend should sing this, exactly the same way.
a masterpiece
How can anyone dislike this song
All I Can Say My My My. When I heard this song it gave me chills.
just what I wanted to say , but couldn't think of the right words thanks
Can so relate to these lyrics..and really feeling that amazing vocal delivery from Victor Brown.
This is beautiful.
I love this cut! So surreal and spiritual
There are other cuts??? Do tell!
This might be my favorite track on the album

Each time I hear Gil come in at the end I get goosebumps.
Soul music masterpiece.

A beautiful song reminds me of a church song
The voice of VICTOR BROWN..Not on the Pieces of a Man album…from his college days…when his band was known as Black & Blue…
Beautiful.
There was before hearing this song, and after. And that's it
Been looking for this song for so long
music for ya soul ✊
Sencillamente hermoso

What comes up
So many many times
Seems I hear it
Every day
You know it's always
On my mind
As I struggle
To find my way
But I can't remember
Half the pain
Things
To set my mind at ease
'Cause I know
We're out here
Just searching
Struggling, struggling
As I am for peace
Echoes, echoes
Of another world
This world of ours
Always torn by wars
And it makes you
Sit down ask yourself
Just what am I
Living for
And in the darkness
Of the dawn
I get down on
My knees
Asking the heavens
Up above me
Where can a man
Find peace
I want to know
Is it a dark for lying somewhere operation
Or my brothers
Losing their lives in the streets
Or in the shelter
Of my woman's arms
Want to know where
Where can a man find peace
It seems that thunder
Rules my life
Every day, every day
And every sleepless night
And I say tell me
Can anybody tell me please
Which way
Is the road to peace
I want to know
Where can a man find peace
Tell me where, where
Where can a man find peace
Tell me which way which way
Is the road to peace
crying
Wow
Lloro como un boludo cada vez que escucho esto.
who's the guitar player? very soothing
Its the same dude from "Who'll Lay Reperations on my Soul?", homies a killa soul singer.
link?

Why fade out a song like this
Hmmmm….Remember; you can’t make no money off of peace ☮️
