Smile Jamaica’s 420 Spliff Gallery

That’s not a doobie, Mom. It’s a toothpick

Greetings,

Happy 420! So I get a text from my Mom:

“Doobie smoker on your Twitter page. Does that set a good example for you and younger people that follow you. Be careful. Social Media can cause problems.”

My sister’s teenage boys are on my feed. So I said maybe they shouldn’t be. I’m tired of the ridiculous conformity against the Seven Leaf.

For 22 years I have spun 3 hours of Spliff Tales on Smile Jamaica. Mainly to celebrate free speech and fight back against the racist drug war. Which was never about safety and all about criminalizing a lifestyle.

So these are all the pics I have put on my Annotated Smile Jamaica Playlists.

4 down, 46 to go!

Smile Jamaica Digital Dubplate: Motown Inna Trenchtown!

00-Soul-Reggae-Riddim-Cover-600x600-e1412107775627-299x190

Greetings,

Took a little excursion. My parents are in the process of becoming Snowbirds: moving from Fort Benton, Montana to Sun City West.

Complete with coyote warnings, a family of bobcats behind the solar array at the end of their block. And warning pamphlets about blackwidows, recluse spiders and Gila monsters.

Gila-Monster-Eyes (1)
No doggie doors for I ‘n’ I in Sun City West!

Here’s how you get to my parents place.

  1. Take the exit by the strip mall with the hearing aids shop on the corner
  2. Turn left at the Dementia Care facility
  3. Turn right at the massive Urology complex
  4. Beware golf carts. They share the road

So knowing I would be away for a week, I cooked up what I call a Digital Dubplate show: Strictly out of my Ark-Ives:

Motown inna Trenchtown. All the great soul covers inna Reggae Stylee.

Smile Jamaica Ark-Ives (Stream + Tracklist): Jah-bruary 20, 2016: Bern One Down!

IMG_1669
Bern one Down!

This is a fallow period around the  Smile Jamaica Ark-Ives.

Green Bay Packers done until September. San Francisco Giants don’t start for another month. 2016 = even year = World Series.

images (2)
Winners: 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016. Don’t H8, appreciate!

So what do I do to soak up the down time? I have been following the Democratic Primary race: Foreman vs. Ali, Jordan vs. Magic, Hillary vs. Bernie.

I’m not voting for either of them. I’m a Jill Steiniac. but I love how competitive it has gotten. Odds on favorite, Hillary, trying to stave off an outsider’s populist counter. In 2008 it was Pres. Peace Prize. Now it’s a 74  year old Jewish Socialist.

Hillary has the elites. Bernie has the 99ers. So out on the Youtube some enterprising media person promoted his candidacy via an awesome mashup of Ben Harper’s Burn one Down synced to Bernie’s “finger in the air, like he just don’t care!” mannerisms

download (15)
Wave your finger in the air like you just don’t care!

The Harper tune is a nyabinghi ballad with acoustic guitar devoted to the Seven Leaf. As Bern One Down this clip matches the drum chop-chop to Bernie’s finger gestures.

You can’t endorse a candidate on non-commercial Radio, but I thought people would get a kick out of it.

<Bern one Down! 1 min 12 sec.>

Give thanks for all the listens, forwards, reposts and favorites on the Smile Jamaica Mixcloud page. Together we have grown the Mixcloud weekly SJ listens from about 25 three years ago to over 100 now. Forward ever backwards never!

You help me get in the charts of Roots Reggae, Vinyl, Dub and Reggae. Give thankx!
