A reissue of Triston Palma's Joker Smoker, originally released in 1981. Angus Taylor of the BBC on Joker Smoker in 2008: "Triston Palma's (or Palmer as he was also known) Joker Smoker was notable not just for his praise of herb smoking (nothing new in reggae) but for it's sardonic appraisal of the moochers and chancers that those who live such a lifestyle are fated to encounter. It's continuing resonance was proven in 2006 when the Italian singjay and producer, Alborosie, released his own anthem, 'Herbalist', on the 'Joker Smoker' rhythm.... Joker Smoker was released in 1981, when reggae had become fascinated with it's own fundamentals: sparse reworkings of familiar rhythms, with pounding kick drums, simple plodding basslines, and effects laden, highly evocative guitar and keyboard lines. These tended to be played by the Roots Radics band who created all the backings for this disc, produced by the deejay Jah Thomas at the famous Channel One Studio. The received mainstream critical wisdom on this era is that it was a musical blind alley that necessitated the iconoclasm of hard dancehall later in the decade. But the captivating ambience and musical intricacies of a record like Joker Smoker show this up for the reductive nonsense that it is. Bingy Bunny's chopping rhythm guitar work, Sowell Bailey and Dwight Pinckney's plaintive, chorus laden, lead guitar phrasing, and the primordial, relentless drum and bass foundations laid down by Errol Holt and Style Scott are typical of a time when modern production techniques, live instrumentation, dancehall rhythms and rootical lyrics came together as one. But it is the small touches that really impress. These include Dean Fraser, Nambo Robinson and Deadly Headley Bennett's mocking horns (parodying Palma's dried honey vocals) on the title track, Gladstone Anderson's precisely considered, minimal piano, and percussionist Sky Juice's use of a cuica friction drum on 'Give Me Give Me Your Love'. 'Joker Smoker' may be the album's centre, but every one's a winner here. A perfect example of what was, in reality, a high point in reggae's golden age."

This jean jacket is super cute comfortable and I get a lot of compliments😍🤩
Size: Large, Color: Medium Blue Vintage, Size: Large, Color: Medium Blue Vintage
I absolutely love this denim jacket—it’s become my new go-to layering piece for everything from casual errands to date nights! As a busy mom who needs clothes that can keep up with my day without sacrificing style, this one checks all the boxes. The medium-wash blue denim has that perfect lived-in feel right out of the box, with just the right amount of structure while still being soft and comfortable against the skin.
The fit is fantastic—it’s cropped just enough to flatter without feeling too short, hitting right at the waist so it pairs beautifully with high-waisted jeans, leggings, or even flowy dresses. I love the classic button-front design and the chest pockets that add a touch of authentic detail without being bulky. The sleeves are nicely tailored too, with enough room to roll them up for a more relaxed vibe or wear them down for polish. It’s surprisingly versatile for all seasons: throw it over a basic tank or tee in warmer weather, or layer it over a cozy sweater when the evenings get cooler.
What really stands out is the quality. The fabric feels sturdy and well-made, with reinforced stitching that makes me confident it’ll hold up through countless washes and wears. No fraying or fading after a few cycles so far, which is huge for something I reach for multiple times a week. It’s also got a nice subtle stretch that moves with you, making it ideal for long days chasing kids or sitting at a desk. I’ve styled it with everything from sneakers and mom jeans for school drop-off to boots and a cute top for church or a night out, and it always elevates the look without trying too hard.
If you’re looking for a timeless denim jacket that feels fresh and modern, this is the one! It’s flattering on real bodies (curves and all), easy to care for, and instantly makes any outfit feel more put-together. I’ve already recommended it to several friends, and I can’t imagine my closet without it now.

Great jacket for the price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: White
The denim jacket has a nice relaxed fit without feeling too baggy and it looks great doing it. There's just enough elastic for the jacket to stretch a little without losing its shape. The color's accurate and it's hard to beat the price so I've no notes!
