About this release
XL Recordings XL1005LP
To celebrate the ten-year anniversary of Gil Scott-Heron's seminal, I'm New Here, this expanded version features the original album plus two unreleased tracks - a cover of Richie Havens’ 'Handsome Johnny’ and a previously unheard Scott-Heron song 'King Henry IV’ - as well as a selection of other recordings from the original "I’m New Here" sessions that were only previously available on a rare, vinyl only deluxe version of the LP.
