1936. Stuff Smith.

THE classic pot smoking song. Heaps of people have done it but Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band did it best of all. Here's my ragged bash...I should say that as a reformed smoker the views expressed herein or not necessarily those of eugenie...he he...still a whole lotta fun and easy to play though. I couldn't find any music, so put up my chord translation in the liner notes if y'all wanna play along :)

 
Thanks again Jon. Great version and good song to help wake up! I had only heard that as a Dixieland style by David Bromberg. Sounds sweet on the uke.

Cheers
 
I first heard it done swung out hillbilly style. Had no idea what immense musical joy was out there, and I can't even touch the stuff. In any event- this is my (second) favorite version of the song mate- pretty sure you will dig it.

Kind of a Mendocino County Green Triangle day anyway...
Not really giving a damn about paying no rent :)
Great video mate!
 
Thanks a lot you guys. Can't wait for that tshirt Steffen and Miriam, thanks! and Dave, yeah...The Train...he's a legend in Birralee, got a few of his records :)
