This is a jammin' night hosted by Coco Tea, featuring all the best toasters and DJ's, and promoting a positive message through progressive Rasta teachings at a regular event in Jamaica. The lineup includes the inspirational and spiritual--though sometimes controversial--Sizzla, with his versatile, gruff, gravelly tone that can range from melodic song to the rapid-fire spoken word he is known for, as well as the legendary reggae icon Barrington Levy, who almost singlehandedly transformed the dancehall scene in the 1980s. Coco Tea himself has long been a distinctive voice on the scene, maintaining his popularity and withstanding the test of time with his laid-back, lover's rock style that retains a streetwise edge, and promotes a socially conscious message. Other artistes making an appearance are Sanchez, Louie Culture, Cutty Ranks, Jimmy Riley, and Turbulence.

The army looks like a pretty fun place to be in this goofy curio from 1942. What there is of a story follows some lucky recruits as they go through a basic training that consists mostly of attending USO dances headlined by the Andrews Sisters (the hit girl group of their day) and the hot trumpet of bandleader Harry James. There's also some fancy footwork from The Jivin' Jack& Jills. Drill Sergeant Shemp Howard tries hard to convince the boys to take the war seriously, but new recruit Dick Foran is much too busy wooing the Colonel's daughter (Jennifer Holt). The film concludes with a rousing montage of war mobilization footage as the Andrews Sisters sing We've Got a Job to Do. Other songs include Six Jerks in a Jeep, Tell It to the Marines, and You're in the Army Now. This is a very interesting mix of comedy, songs, and enlistment propaganda from veteran comedy director Eddie Cline (THE BANK DICK, MY LITTLE CHICKADEE).DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseAdditional Release Material: Newsreel Blooper ReelInteractive Features: Direct Scene Access Trivia QuizAdditional Products: Original Lobby Poster
