Song of the Day 12/4: Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard, “It’s All Going to Pot”

Weed-culture icon Willie Nelson told a TV interviewer the other day that he’s given up smoking marijuana because his 86-year-old lungs won’t take it anymore. So in tribute to America’s Secretary of Cannabis, here’s him and ol’ Merle paying tribute to Mother Nature. The video was made in the recording studio, and I don’t think that’s hand-rolled terbacky Willie is smoking. This was the single from their final album together, “Django and Jimmie,” released in 2015.

    Absolute stoner legend. Maybe the greatest of all time. Respect.

    Mount Rushmore of Ganja.

    Willie
    Snoop
    Cheech Marin
    Tommy Chong
    Killer Mike

    I would consider arguments for Bill Maher. Maybe.

      Didn’t Willie smoke Snoop under the table one time?

      And don’t forget Carl Sagan.

          Important to have someone who shows it doesn’t destroy your brain.

          Just to be clear, I don’t approve of carving up mountains. It would have to be a Vegas-style Mt. Rushmore. Probably in Vegas.

            Agree all the way around including the fact the it’s a conceptional, figurative monument. Pantheon I guess is a better word.

            • Alby

              No, I want it in Vegas, right next to the fake Venice.

              • RE Vanella

                It’s actually a pretty good idea.

    One technical issue. And thank you to those who have brought this to my attention.

    This was conceived in my mind as an American Pantheon. However, Tommy Chong in Canadian. So, Peter Tosh and Robert Nesta Marley will be considered.
