Recently, I learned the meaning of 4/20 and 420 Day. April 20th has been designated (unofficially of course!) as Weed Day around the world. There are several stories circulating as to how it started. Some say it started with the Grateful Dead. Others say 420 is police code for “pot smoking in progress.” Still other stories start with “The Waldos,” a group of five friends who say they coined the term 420 in 1971 to refer to a certain hour of the afternoon. There are probably as many stories about 420 day’s origins as there are strains of the herb.
Either way, in celebration of 4/20 Day (although I don’t personally indulge), here is a 420 playlist download these feature singles from the ‘High Society Reggae’ playlist on the Dub Rockers Spotify.
