2018 repress. Honest Jon's Records has prepared a series drawing on some of the earliest recordings in the EMI Hayes Archive - recovered from more than 150,000 78s - staggering music from Iraq, Turkey, Caucasia, Lebanon, Iran (including sides made in Old Street, London, in 1909), Egypt, and the Belgian Congo. This series opener presents the music of the West African underground of 1920s Britain, recorded at Hayes and released on the Zonophone label (which exported nearly all the records to West Africa). You can hear Caribbean influences here, the promise of highlife there, but Living Is Hard mostly disavows fusion and assimilation. And by contrast with antecedents in the history of black music in Britain - minstrelsy and spirituals, for example, ragtime and jazz - these recordings are unhitched from the protocols of a white listenership. These are startling, trenchant, elemental roots - carrying troubled news home, along with signs of the new African nationalism - and an enthralling glimpse of other lives, another time. Artists include: Oni Johnson, Isaac Jackson, Ben Simmons, Harry E. Quashie, Douglas Papafio, Prince Zulamkah, The West African Instrumental Quintet, The Ga Quartet, Domingo Justus, James Tucker, John Mugat, Kumasi Trio, James Thomas, Nicholas de Heer, George Williams Aingo and James Brown. Deluxe gatefold sleeve with large insert including Mark Ainley's liner notes plus photos, etc.

read the fine print
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I really need to learn to read the small print. That pocket line on the chest turned out to be a fake pocket and the actual; zipper on the sleeve is also a fake pocket; my bad but in my defense I'd never dreamed that anyone would put either on a shirt. Also my search term was men's "cotton shirt w/ pocket shirt" and it brought up this polyester wonder. But at least it fits well and seems well made.

High‑style look that feels way more expensive than it is.
Size: X-Large, Color: Orange
Okay, let’s talk about this shirt because I was not expecting to love it as much as I do. The Men’s Long Sleeve Polo Shirt with the quarter‑zip is giving premium designer energy without the designer price tag.
From the moment I put it on, the fit was chef’s kiss—slim, clean, and athletic without feeling tight. The fabric has that smooth, high‑end feel you usually only get from brands that make your wallet cry. But here? You’re getting elevated style at a totally reasonable price.

Magnificent fabric
Color: Pink, Size: Medium, Color: Pink, Size: Medium
A beautiful sweater—exactly like the one in the photo. The fabric is stretchy and of very good quality; it is perfect for a casual occasion where you also want to look practical. It pairs very well with shorts.

Great Sweater
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
My son wore this to an event he got so many compliments on it. The quality of the fabric and the design makes it look so much more expensive.
