The Last Poets - Right On!


Today's PSA is brought to you by Milk. Milk hit the world with another megapost - this time on The Last Poets and so now I have no excuse not to bust these facts. Awhile back I noticed when listening to Right On! that the first tracks were mislabelled on the CD. Below is the proper tracklisting for tracks one through seven. 8 through 18 were straight. Track #7 was the inspiration for the Jungle Brother's Black Woman from Done by the Forces of Nature. I'm kind of partial to the last track - #18. Since knowledge is infinite then on any given day street knowledge can be > book knowledge. You just have to know what day it is.

1. David Nelson/The Last Poets - Intro
2. Felipe Luciano/The Last Poets - Jibaro/My Pretty Nigger
3. Gylan Kain/The Last Poets - Been Done Already
4. Felipe Luciano/The Last Poets - Hey Now
