Giacomo Gates ist ein ausgezeichneter Bariton Sänger, der von seiner stimmlichen Farbe irgendwo zwischen Eddie Jefferson, Billy Eckstein und Kurt Elling beheimatet ist. Seine Liebe für die Musik von Poet und Wegbereiter des Hip Hop Gil Scott Heron ist dem Produzenten Mark Ruffin aufgefallen. Dieses Material ist für Gates, der ohne Frage einer, der am besten geeigneten Darsteller dieser satirischen und aufschlussreichen Texte darstellt geradezu maßgeschneidert. Eine Reflektion auf die 70er Jahre des Soul / Funk-Jazz, die in anbetracht der aktuellen Situation mehr als aktuell erscheinen mag.
Giacomo Gates is an extraordinary vocal stylist. He's often credited as a contemporary Eddie Jefferson, but with his full-bodied baritone and blazing inventiveness he sounds like a cross between Billy Eckstine and Kurt Elling. Producer Mark Ruffin, known for his love and knowledge of Scott-Heron’s music, chose Gates specifically to perform this repertoire. As bracing an innovator as he is an interpreter, Gates transforms the music into a cornucopia of delicacies that extends from the smooth and mellow to the razor-sharp. Scott-Heron made music that reflected the turbulence, uncertainty and increasing pessimism of the early 70s, merging the soul and jazz and drawing on an oral poetry tradition that reached back to the blues and forward to hip-hop. This material is tailor-made for Gates, who without question is the best-suited performer to deliver the satirical and insightful lyrics of a true American original, Gil Scott-Heron.
