Music: Pirate Radio - “The Dread Pirate Roberts”
Wednesday, April 9th, 2008
A really good shot of Reggae is what you get with todays musical hit from the group, PIRATE RADIO. Hailing from Portsmouth, U.K. these reggae masters bring us some classic-sounding reggae dub with their musical hit “The Dread Pirate Roberts”. These reggae rockers must be fans of the movie “the Princess Bride” to name this righteous, rootsy instrumental after the wonderfully mysterious hero. This is the good stuff, sounding like a great 1970’s reggae, funk dance hit. Put this on your next cannabis party mix tape because your mixed tape just isn’t complete without a kick-ass reggae tune to make everything Irie. Another great artist from http://music.podshow.com .



Good Day beautiful stashers! Today we enjoy some great acoustic guitar with DALLAS LEONARD and his musical hit “One Toke”. Dallas is a Midwestern troubadour who has played in various rock bands and now is embracing his inner folkster by writing and performing his acoustic music. Originally from Indy, Dallas relocated to Virginia in 2000. I have a deep love for good acoustic guitar, and Dallas does not disappoint with this toker-friendly tune. You can sample and purchase his music on his
Welcome beautiful stashers! Often the difference between a great strain of cannabis and a really great strain of cannabis is a cool name. I fondly remember my first encounter with “Purple Kush” and “Mowie Wowie”. Today’s musical hit from the band, THE DEN COLLECTIVE makes a point of calling out some of today’s more notorious smoke. The hit “Mary Jane, I’ve Smoked my Last One” happily strums it’s way into my heart. The Den Collective is a five member band from the UK that easily slips between electric and acoustic sounds. Add this track to you next cannabis party mix tape. You can learn more about the Den on their web page at
What we need today is a good dose of Rock and Roll! THE JOINT CONSPIRACY are some rock and rollers from across the big pond, Essex, England. Kick-ass drums and some hot guitar riffs - this is good ol’ English Rock. With Ryan on vocals, Matt on drums, Greg on guitar and Steve on bass, todays hit “Homegrown” will have you playing your air instrument as if you were in the band yourself! Ain’t no conspiracy here….these guys are just good old rock and roll!
It’s Friday here on the stash, so take this musical puff from a UK punk rock group that was together from 1995 to 2002. The group P.A.I.N (which stands for Propaganga and Information Network) recorded the song “Grow More Weed” in 2001 with none other than Mr. Nice himself, Howard Marks, who joins lead vocalist Jon Eris on this heavy-dub reggae, ska-influenced tune. Mr. Marks famously spent seven years in an American prison for drug trafficking and later ran for election to UK Parliament on the single issue of the legalize cannabis campaign. He didn’t make Parliament, but he continues to write and campaign vigorously for the legalization of recreational and medical cannabis.
Tuesday on the stash, and I feel the need for some great bass lines and a catchy chorus. I turn to TOMAAS, and his anthemic “Let’s Get High”. Tomaas Proitsis was born in Greece, and lived in Germany as a child. He now resides in New York where he continues to develop his jazzy, funky, soulful style working with some of the great musicians of that genre such as Bruce Johnson and James Blood Ulmer (Jazz is the teacher, Funk is the preacher!). Although Tomaas is proficient on the accordion, we only get to enjoy his mad guitar skills and deep earthy vocals on todays music hit. Groove through your Tuesday with “Let’s get High”, and if you want to hear more, check out his
It’s Blue Monday here on the stash so go ahead and let a real Delta Blues man, BOO BOO DAVIS take you on a mini vacation to THE cannabis mecca in today’s music hit, “Amsterdam Blues”. Born the son of a cotton farmer and blues musician, James ‘Boo Boo’ Davis was born in Drew, Mississippi in the heart of the Delta then moved to St Louis in the early sixties to start a blues band with his brothers. If by some chance you were in East St. Louis in the seventies and eighties you might have caught the Davis Brothers Band at the blues club, Tabby’s Red Room, where they played for eighteen years from 2am to 6am every Friday and Saturday. Boo Boo is a regular in the St Louis blues scene and frequently tours in Europe.
