{"product_id":"sublime-second-hand-smoke-cd","title":"Sublime - Second Hand Smoke [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eSecond Hand Smoke gathers the remixes, demos, B-sides and studio scraps Sublime left behind, released in 1997 as a single CD of odds and ends for fans who wanted more after Bradley Nowell's death the year before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArriving a year after the band's self-titled album broke big, it served as both a tribute and a scrapbook. Rather than a polished greatest hits, it shows how loose and inventive the trio could be when nobody was watching, flipping between punk thrash, dub experiments and laid-back reggae within a few minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDoin' Time (Uptown Dub) reshapes their summery hit into something slower and smokier, letting the bass and echo do the talking. Romeo appears as a raw demo, giving a closer look at Nowell's songwriting before any studio polish. Slow Ride rolls along on an easy, swaying groove, while Had a Dat shows off the band's love of dancehall rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a homemade feel throughout, the sense of three friends recording whatever excited them that week, from covers to studio jokes to half-finished jams. That spirit is exactly why Sublime connected with so many listeners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who already knows the big songs, this CD fills in the corners, offering a messier, more personal portrait of a band that never got the chance to finish its story.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57478976110897,"sku":"008811171421","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/1200x1200bb_1a0b43d4-dc92-4bac-bc4e-74f1a523c8ab.jpg?v=1794396044","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/sublime-second-hand-smoke-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
