“The Revolution Will Not Be Televised” is a poem and song by Gil Scott-Heron. It was the B-side to Scott-Heron’s first single, “Home Is Where the Hatred Is”, from his album Pieces of a Man (1971). It was also included on his compilation album, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (1974).
It’s interesting to know that long-time Miles Davis bass player Ron Carter played the funky bass on this track.
