1974 saw another LP collaboration with Brian Jackson, the critically acclaimed opus "Winter in America", with Bob Adams on drums and Danny Bowens on bass. The album contained Scott-Heron's most cohesive material and featured more of Jackson's creative input than his previous albums had. "Winter in America" has been regarded by many critics as the two musicians' most artistic effort. The following year, Scott-Heron and Jackson released "Midnight Band: The First Minute of a New Day". 1975 saw the release of the single "Johannesburg", a rallying cry to the issue of apartheid in South Africa. The song would be re-issued, in 12"-single form, together with "Waiting for the Axe to Fall" and "B-movie" in 1983.
