The following playlist is humbly submitted for your listening pleasure from Full Stop, your full service literary journal. In past years we invoked the immortal and ominous words of Prince Buster, “Enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think,” but this year we turn to the immortal and ominous words of Slim Smith: “Look here children, it’s gonna get rough. Look here children, it’s gonna get tough. Can’t you feel it even on the street sometimes .Can’t you see it right before your very eyes.”
