  2. i know i've probably shared this one before, but #LKJ is for me more important than even bob, he has special meaning to me bc a teenage crush introduced me to him, i went to a gig by myself & have been following & listening ever since. his lyrics & poetry are just awesome.
    off course now i also have personal experience with the bullshitish state of inglan #MusicBeforeBedtime

  8. Chronique ordinaire de violences policières dans le quartier jamaïcain du Londres des années 70.

    Celle-ci finit très mal pour celui qui a osé relever la tête.

    "Sonny's lettah"

  9. "Want fi goh rave"
    (LKJ. 1979)

    Great song about the hardness of life and how broken youth dealt with it.
    LKJ sings it in jamaican patwa but it's easily understandable, or at least guessable.
    Enjoy.

  11. Something about Mondays: another great morning on the farm, harvesting plum and cherry tomatoes, kohlrabi, cleaning onions and squash, talking cooperation and relationships, making little videos. I had the pleasure of introducing Jay to the dub poetry of #LKJ and the complex marriage of the #Oneida Community. And this afternoon a great co-op development conversation with the operator of a hair salon.

    "Open up, it's the police, come on, open up"

    "What address do you want?"

    "Number 66, come on, open up"

    Weston, feeling high, replied,
    "Yes, this is Street 66, step right in and Take some licks."

    "Street 66"
    LKJ. 1980 [LP Bass Culture]
