Second Hand Smoke (Special Ltd Offer: T-Shirt/CD)

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Most posthumous albums are shrouded in a sense of morbid nostalgia and grim curiosity. In Sublime's case, there was also some cruel irony to contend with: the California nuevo-punk outfit's promising self-titled major-label debut and commercial breakout was released barely a month after frontman Brad Nowell's death from a heroin overdose--and their de facto demise. But such was the Long Beach band's longtime following that raiding the vaults, however sparse, was inevitable. Released 18 months after Nowell's death, Second Hand Smoke more than lived up to its title, cobbling together a collection of outtakes from their debut and padding them out with (sometimes multiple) remixes of old tracks like "Doin' Time," "April 29," and the Gwen Stefani duet, "Saw Red." There's a standout cover of Bob Marley's "Trenchtown Rock," but a lot of the rest feels like the incomplete discards and second (or third) choices they obviously were. --Jerry McCulley --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

4 out of 5 stars Raw Sublime.......2007-02-20

This album combines a small dosage of the catchy, addictive sound of the Self-titled with a big hit of fluid rhymes and deep pervasive beats of 40 Oz. and just the right amount of underground, truly raw, explicit sound of Robbin the Hood. The overall flow of the songs can disappoint, but the disc is of excellent use on the CDJ's...



5 out of 5 stars Ohhh man.......2006-12-12

This album sounds sublime... the weakest sublime album but still f*ckin amazing! I love it... good music lovers just get it.

1 out of 5 stars what the heck happened?.......2006-04-20

Dude, this CD has absolutely no good songs on it. The tracks just seem like they were tossed together on the spot without any practice first. Not to say I don't like Sublime though, because I have their debut and it's really good. This CD however is weak and ought not to be purchased.

2 out of 5 stars The inevitable leftovers - Buyer beware.......2006-01-17

The instinct to cash in on their well-earned reputation as a landmark band of the nineties was perhaps too much for the surviving members of Sublime to resist, hence this release.

Most of tracks presented here are sub-par versions of previously released material. It would be of interest to hardcore fans and others who are curious as to the evolution of their songs, but there is little else here to sustain interest over any period of time.

5 out of 5 stars I never get tired of this..........2005-11-17

I have been a Sublime fan for years and I have to say this is my favorite album. It's like an old friend, when you come across it you just get so happy! This is one of those cds you can take out at any time and listen to. Of all the songs, "Badfish" just makes me happy, and I find myself missing it often. I have owned this cd probably ten times and it keeps "disappearing". I am getting ready to order it again because I can't live without it! I am also getting "Sublime" since my husband wants that one again. We have really crappy friends... Not that I blame them. The only thing that I dislike about Sublime is that they won't be making any new albums. This album is worth the $12 or so, it's also worth buying over and over again.

    5 out of 5 stars Sadness and sorrow!.......2001-11-25

    Look ya'll I was looking through my friends dads collection of promo CDs from when he was running his own radio station, anyways so what do I spy? The original promo for 40 oz to freedom, Boring Nation, and a CD that I have never heard of or seen before. It had the old sublime symbol in a circle with a red line going through it. Behind the red line was a tobasco bottle. Unfortunately the ink that they used to prin the cover of the CD (Not the insert the actual CD) was defective and the reason that they are so rare is because it will seep through and make the CD unplayable, unless you game doctor them! Unfortunately the Game DR. rubs away the very bottom layer of te CD thus negating any value they had, but who cares they are all awesome! Sublime is wicked, R.I.P. Bradley Nowell!

    5 out of 5 stars it's really good.......2000-05-11

    This album is for anyone who enjoyed 40 oz to Freedom, Greatest Hits, or even the self-titled cd. This is probably better for the hard-core Sublime fans,though. Because it has some tracks where Bradley is just freestyling or going off on some Marley tune(Trenchtown Rock). I personally love the reggae influenced songs the best, so I think this is a great cd. If the only Sublime cd you've heard is the self-titled one, I suggest you try 40 oz to Freedom. ENJOY!

    5 out of 5 stars Not good?.......1999-04-12

    anyone whose says this album is not good is out of it sure if the only album you know by sublime is the selftitle album this one is going to sound different thats because they took songs from other albums this a greatest hits album in a way. So if you say this isn't their best you don't know what your talking about. All of sublimes albums are the best. You crazy fools

    3 out of 5 stars It was pretty good.......1999-01-18

    This was definately not their best but it was pretty good. I have heard a whole lot better from them so i was kinda dissapointed. If you are a big fan of sublime I think you would like it. If you are a first time listener i recommend "Sublime" by Sublime. It is their self title album!

    5 out of 5 stars This is a fine cd.......1999-01-14

    Secondhand Smoke really offers a solid mix of hard to find Sublime song and remixs of their more popular stuff. The cd's not for everyone. There's no songs for the masses like Santeria. But for anyone who really felt one of Sublime's other albums, 2ndhand is a must have.
