Tomorrow (or today depending on what time zone you're in) is April 20, in other words, 420. To some people that holds significance. Most see it as South Park level chuckle. (Q:What does a stoner call 420? A:"Dude!!") I was browsing the song titles of an out of print compilation, Drink Up- Light Up Jazz Noire Tales of Dope, Booze and Sleaze. Given the date, I thought I'd concentrate on one of the three categories, dope. Weed to be more specific. These are old pre-rhythm and blues jazz. Good stuff.
