Another gem used by Premo "Peace Of Mind" (1972)
Premo is one of the best, if not the best, at finding and sampling old gems. This one was sampled for MOP's "Roll Call"
Must Have for all "Lo" heads "Lo-Life Documentary"
Most people have no idea how deep the RL Polo sub-culture goes. I met a chick the other day who works at a Polo store in NY and out of curiosity I had to ask if she ever hear about the Lo-Lifes. Of course she didn't...
Not sure where you can pick up a copy...but I'll be on the look out for one. I don't claim to be a true/hardcore "Lo Head", but respect the culture and would love to have the full movie in my collection. If you know where one can buy a copy post a reply for us all to know.

"Smoke my peace pipe" - In recognition of our upcoming stolen land day
I'm dropping this funky gem on you today as we prepare to celebrate the day we stole this country and made it ours. Sorry to the natives who got took in the deal. But hey...it was bound to happen eventually and if not us then someone else.
As KRS One so eloquently stated it on "Sound of Da Police":
"There could never be justice on stolen land"
Anyway enjoy this funky track by The Wild Magnolias and smoke your peace pipe!
