'Dope and Glory' is a collection of '30s and '40s vocal jazz music with marijuana as the single defining theme. - AMG review
A wonderful collection on the german reissue label Trikont. I have a few of the "marijuana jazz" compilations, and this selection is by far the best, with all the meat and none of the fluff. It was posted at spaceblues.blogspot.com and then kindly reposted again at my request, for which SpaBlu gets my kudos and undying respect.
