Made In Czech Republic sticker on back shrink."Dead Men Don't Smoke Marijuana" is a captivating LP by the legendary Sierra Leonean musician S.E. Rogie, released by Real World Records.

The songs on this record are imbued with warmth, wisdom, and humor, reflecting both everyday life and deeper philosophical musings. S.E. Rogie began his career in the 1960s and gained international acclaim for his smooth vocals and intricate fingerpicking style; he was instrumental in bringing Sierra Leone's musical heritage to global audiences before his passing in 1994. "Dead Men Don't Smoke Marijuana," recorded shortly before his death, remains one of his most celebrated works?praised for its authenticity and timeless charm.
