Time for some more great blues on this Blues Monday. today we get the track “5-0 Blues” by Corey Harris. As cannabis consumers, we’re alway on the lookout for the police, or the “five-oh”, a slang term that comes from the old “Hawaii Five-Oh” cop show in the ’70s.
This tune takes you all the way down to the Mississippi Delta blues sounds of the New Orleans musicians, complete with traditional guitar and authentic Crescent City horn arrangements.
Find out more about Corey Harris at his MySpace page.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
