Me and The Devil is the first single off Gil Scott-Heron’s new album “I’m New Here”.  It’s his first record in 13 years and I’m really digging what I’ve heard so far.  Nice article about him and the record in The Village Voice here.

Recorded in Koln, Germany in 1986.  Woody Shaw on trumpet, Johnny Griffin on Tenor, John Hicks on Piano, Reggie Johnson on the bass and Alvin Queen on drums.  Griffin – “The Little Giant” – absolutely tears it up, showing that he hadn’t lost a step since his early days and Shaw is cookin’ right along side him!
