And A Hempy New Year!
Music in this segment is from one of the 2 Cannabis Christmas Albums released through Time 4 Hemp.
Casper Leitch sat down and wrote lyrics to a handful of Christmas Carols and New Year’s Eve songs and then The Illusions Of Music put together 2 different versions of each song. There is one version of each song found on The GREEN An Red Cannabis Christmas Album in this segment.
Both records contain the exact same 16 Christmas songs in the exact same order. The only difference? Every track has been re‑imagined in a completely different style depending on which color album you pick.
'Sharing Buds With Buds,' for instance, bounces along with island rhythms on the Red album, then croons with Motown‑flavored swagger on the Green album.
Whether you spin Red or Green, you’ll end up with some amazing holiday songs and twice the enjoyment.
